Genes affected
SCN5A (HGNC:10593): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5) The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel subunit. This protein is found primarily in cardiac muscle and is responsible for the initial upstroke of the action potential in an electrocardiogram. Defects in this gene have been associated with long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3), atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and Brugada syndrome 1, all autosomal dominant cardiac diseases. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

This sequence change in SCN5A is predicted to replace valine with isoleucine at codon 1278, p.(Val1278Ile). This variant has been reported as p.Val1279Ile in the literature. The valine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, Multiz alignments), and is located in the transmembrane region, a region, amino acids 1207-1466, that is defined as a mutational hotspot (PMID: 32893267). There is a small physicochemical difference between valine and isoleucine. The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v4.0 is 0.013% (178/1,179,534 alleles) in the European non-Finnish population. This variant has been reported in individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 32880476, 21596231). This variant has been observed in an individual with a clinical diagnosis of Brugada syndrome and a pathogenic SCN5A truncating variant (PMID: 19561025). A high-throughput patch-clamp study in HEK293T cells investigating the function of suspected Brugada syndrome variants showed that this variant had no impact on protein function (PMID: 32533946). Computational evidence predicts a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (REVEL = 0.868). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as a VARIANT OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE. Following criteria are met: BP5, BS3_Supporting, PM1, PP3. -

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1279 of the SCN5A protein (p.Val1279Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473341, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with dilated cardiomyopathy or Brugada syndrome (PMID: 19561025, 21596231, 32880476). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67829). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect SCN5A function (PMID: 32533946). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This missense variant replaces valine with isoleucine at codon 1279 of the SCN5A protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study using a patch clamp method has determined this variant to be benign (PMID 32533946). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Brugada syndrome, who also carried a pathogenic truncation variant in the same gene (PMID: 19561025). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 21596231). This variant has been identified in 27/282678 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

The c.3835G>A (p.V1279I) alteration is located in exon 21 (coding exon 20) of the SCN5A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3835, causing the valine (V) at amino acid position 1279 to be replaced by an isoleucine (I). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
