Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -4 ACMG points: 2P and 6B. PM1BP4_ModerateBS2

The NM_001127222.2(CACNA1A):​c.5336G>A​(p.Arg1779Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000198 in 1,613,722 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 16/22 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R1779R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
CACNA1A (HGNC:1388): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 A) Voltage-dependent calcium channels mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells, and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, and gene expression. Calcium channels are multisubunit complexes composed of alpha-1, beta, alpha-2/delta, and gamma subunits. The channel activity is directed by the pore-forming alpha-1 subunit, whereas, the others act as auxiliary subunits regulating this activity. The distinctive properties of the calcium channel types are related primarily to the expression of a variety of alpha-1 isoforms, alpha-1A, B, C, D, E, and S. This gene encodes the alpha-1A subunit, which is predominantly expressed in neuronal tissue. Mutations in this gene are associated with 2 neurologic disorders, familial hemiplegic migraine and episodic ataxia 2. This gene also exhibits polymorphic variation due to (CAG)n-repeats. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. In one set of transcript variants, the (CAG)n-repeats occur in the 3' UTR, and are not associated with any disease. But in another set of variants, an insertion extends the coding region to include the (CAG)n-repeats which encode a polyglutamine tract. Expansion of the (CAG)n-repeats from the normal 4-18 to 21-33 in the coding region is associated with spinocerebellar ataxia 6. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

The c.5339G>A (p.R1780Q) alteration is located in exon 35 (coding exon 35) of the CACNA1A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5339, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 1780 to be replaced by a glutamine (Q). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The missense variant c.5336G>A (p.Arg1779Gln) in the CACNA1A gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. This variant is reported with the allele frequency (0.0003%) in the gnomAD Exomes. This variant has been reported to the ClinVar database as Uncertain Significance. However, no details are available for independent assessment. The amino acid Arg at position 1779 is changed to a Gln changing protein sequence and it might alter its composition and physico-chemical properties. Computational evidence (Polyphen, SIFT and MutationTaster) predicts conflicting evidence on protein structure and function for this variant. The amino acid change p.Arg1779Gln in CACNA1A is predicted as conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP across 100 vertebrates. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Uncertain Significance. -
