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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 31, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 672 of the SCN4A protein (p.Arg672His). This variant is present in population databases (rs80338788, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hypokalemic periodic paralysis (PMID: 10944223, 14504341, 15596759, 19225109, 22253645, 23019082, 25213595). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5912). 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 with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN4A function (PMID: 10944223, 11912116, 18824591). This variant disrupts the p.Arg672 amino acid residue in SCN4A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10944223, 11558801, 11912116, 15482957, 17330043, 18824591, 19225109, 20660662, 25024265, 26252573). 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. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpSep 07, 2023Variant summary: SCN4A c.2015G>A (p.Arg672His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Ion transport domain (IPR005821) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.2e-05 in 247856 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.2015G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Hypokalaemic periodic paralysis (Jurkat-Rott_2000, Horga_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Functional studies reported this variant affects SCN4A protein function (Jurkat-Rott_2000, Struyk_2008, Sokolov_2010). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23516313, 10944223, 20660662, 17591984). Six submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
