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]

BP4

Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.8).

BP6

Variant 17-63968321-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-63968321-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 477432.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

BP7

Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-7.83 with no splicing effect.

BS1

Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.000157 (229/1455866) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.00252 (216/85870). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00224. There are 3 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 167 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

BS2

High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 3 AR,AD gene
