Genes affected
CACNA1H (HGNC:1395): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 H) This gene encodes a T-type member of the alpha-1 subunit family, a protein in the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization and consist of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The alpha-1 subunit has 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. There are multiple isoforms of each of the proteins in the complex, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized for the gene described here. Studies suggest certain mutations in this gene lead to childhood absence epilepsy (CAE). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

PVS1
Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.027187765 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 3.5, offset of 33, new splice context is: cggGTcggt. Cryptic site results in inframe change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in frameshift change.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing scoreres supports a deletorius effect: Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.

Idiopathic generalized epilepsy;C4310756:Hyperaldosteronism, familial, type IV Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMar 04, 2020In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. The current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in CACNA1H cause disease. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CACNA1H-related disease. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 25 of the CACNA1H gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product. -
