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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 25) in uniprot entity SCN4A_HUMAN there are 5 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000334.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.982
• PP5: Variant 17-63945602-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-63945602-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 5906.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr17-63945602-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The I1160V variant in the SCN4A gene has been reported previously in the heterozygous state in mutiple unrelatedindividuals with acetazolamide-responsive myotonia congenita or paramyotonia congenita(Jurkatt-Rott et al., 2004; Al-Ghamdi et al., 2017). Functional studies demonstrate that the I1160Vvariant has faster rates of closed-state fast inactivation onset and recovery as well as slowerdeactivation as compared to wild-type (Richmond et al., 1997). The I1160V variant is not observed inlarge population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome VariantServer). The I1160V variant is a conservative amino acid substitution that occurs at a position that isconserved across species. We interpret I1160V as a pathogenic variant. -

Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN4A function (PMID: 9336185). This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1160 of the SCN4A protein (p.Ile1160Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of myotonia congenita (PMID: 8058156, 22759684, 29606556; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5906). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SCN4A protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
