Genes affected

SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Published functional studies indicate that this variant impairs fast inactivation as compared to wild type (Lerche et al., 1993); Predicted to be within the intracellular loop between the third and fourth homologous domain; Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; In-silico analysis, which includes splice predictors and evolutionary conservation, is inconclusive as to whether the variant alters gene splicing. In the absence of RNA/functional studies, the actual effect of this sequence change is unknown.; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 32369273, 25525159, 7980103, 8308722, 31307605, 29774303, 28877545, 32849172, 32670189, 26080010, 31544778, 26885337, 32660787, 32528171) -

The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD), Cambridge, MA (URL: http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org)). This variant has been identified in individuals with myotonia and segregates with disease in multiple families. At least one other missense variant at this codon is considered to be pathogenic or likely pathogenic, suggesting this variant may also cause disease. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 7473241, 8740371, 16392038). -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1306 of the SCN4A protein (p.Gly1306Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs80338792, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with myotonia fluctuans (PMID: 7980103, 8308722, 26080010, 26885337). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5908). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SCN4A protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN4A function (PMID: 7473241, 16392038). This variant disrupts the p.Gly1306 amino acid residue in SCN4A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 8308722, 16832098, 17823953, 20713951). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
