Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -20 ACMG points: 0P and 20B. BP4_StrongBP6_Very_StrongBS1BS2

The NM_001127222.2(CACNA1A):​c.1357G>A​(p.Ala453Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00502 in 1,600,748 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 32 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely benign (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A453S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

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

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.009932339).
BP6
Variant 19-13317310-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-13317310-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 68420.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00425 (647/152144) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.00544 (370/68008). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00498. There are 5 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 347 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Significance:Benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant is present in ExAC at a MaxMAF of 2% in Finnish chromosomes. It is classified in ClinVar with 1 star as Benign by Emory and Likely Benign by UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot. It was reported in one patient with alternating hemiplagia of childhood who also had a de novo variant in ATP1A3, CACNA1A variant was also seen in her unaffected mother. It was seen in one family with Familial hemiplegic migraine (segregated in 1 relative) and was associated with the absence of sensorimotor symptoms in a migraine with aura. In the same paper, authors show via in vitro studies that this variant affected protein function. Was also seen in one proband with early-onset progressive ataxia and her affected sister. If this variant plays any role in disease, its frequnecy is too high to be a Mendelian variant. -
