Genes affected

SCN1A (HGNC:10585): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1) Voltage-dependent sodium channels are heteromeric complexes that regulate sodium exchange between intracellular and extracellular spaces and are essential for the generation and propagation of action potentials in muscle cells and neurons. Each sodium channel is composed of a large pore-forming, glycosylated alpha subunit and two smaller beta subunits. This gene encodes a sodium channel alpha subunit, which has four homologous domains, each of which contains six transmembrane regions. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures and epileptic encephalopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The RefSeq Project has decided to create four representative RefSeq records. Three of the transcript variants are supported by experimental evidence and the fourth contains alternate 5' untranslated exons, the exact combination of which have not been experimentally confirmed for the full-length transcript.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the SCN1A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 848 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 89 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 5.2206 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 7.6022 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to migraine, familial hemiplegic, 3, familial hemiplegic migraine, Dravet syndrome, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, myoclonic-astatic epilepsy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 6, familial or sporadic hemiplegic migraine, arthrogryposis, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 2.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.871
• PP5: Variant 2-166051967-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-166051967-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 940560.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change replaces alanine with glycine at codon 239 of the SCN1A protein (p.Ala239Gly). The alanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between alanine and glycine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has been observed in an individual with clinical features of epileptic encephalopathy (Invitae). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant disrupts the p.Ala239 amino acid residue in SCN1A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with SCN1A-related conditions (PMID: 19303743, 17347258, 28202706), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
