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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.57).
BP6
Variant 17-63945351-C-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-63945351-C-A is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 255850.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00705 (1073/152202) while in subpopulation AFR AF = 0.0244 (1014/41508). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0232. There are 15 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 494 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 15 AR,AD gene
