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]

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as the p.(R222Q) variant results in abnormal sodium channel current (Cheng et al., 2010; Laurent et al., 2012; Mann et al., 2012; Nair et el., 2012; Daniel et al., 2019); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 27532257, 25624448, 24815523, 22999724, 24136861, 19412328, 19716085, 21167004, 28779003, 22766342, 29506689, 31317183, 31125670, 31514951, 25741286, 29871609, 27535533, 33131149, 20458009, 22710484, 21596231) -

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

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 222 of the SCN5A protein (p.Arg222Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant dilated cardiomyopathy, arrhythmias and long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085, 21483645, 22766342, 22999724, 25210054). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 39444). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN5A function (PMID: 22710484, 24815523, 25624448). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Victorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research Institute
Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Loss of function and gain of function are both known mechanisms of disease in this gene. Loss of function is usually associated with Brugada syndrome 1 (MIM#601144) and sick sinus syndrome (SSS) (MIM#608567), whereas gain of function is usually associated with long QT syndrome (LQTS) (MIM#603830). Dilated cardiomyopathy 1E (DCM) (MIM#601154) can be caused by variants with either a loss or gain of function mechanism (PMID: 29798782). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Most conditions associated with this gene are dominantly inherited however, SSS can be caused by recessive variants (OMIM). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to glutamine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD <0.001 for a dominant condition (v3:1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2: 1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated S4 transmembrane segment of domain I (PMID: 25741286). (I) 0704 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has limited previous evidence for pathogenicity. An alternative change at this residue p.(Arg222Gly) has been reported as likely pathogenic (ClinVar). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported multiple times as pathogenic, and has been observed in patients with LQTS, DCM and arrythmia (ClinVar, PMID: 31125670, 29871609). (SP) 1002 - This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Myocytes from mouse models transfected with this variant demonstrated faster inactivation, a negative shift in activation and inactivation and increased current (PMID: 31125670). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

The SCN5A c.665G>A variant is a single nucleotide change in exon 6/28 of the SCN5A gene, which is predicted to change the amino acid arginine at position 222 in the protein, to glutamine. Well-established functional studies show this variant has a deleterious effect on the resultant protein, with gain of function of the sodium channel due to proton leakage reported (PMID#22710484, 24815523, 25624448) (PS3). The variant has been identified in >15 probands with a clinical presentation of (or similar to) Dilated Cardiomyopathy 1E/Arrhythmia. This represents a significant increase in the prevalence of the variant in affected individuals compared with the prevalence in control subjects (PS4). This variant has been reported to co-segregate with disease (>20 segregants over 4 families PMID#19716085. 22766342) (PP1_strong) and is rare in population databases (gnomAD allele frequency = 0.00065%; 1 het) (PM2). The variant has been reported in dbSNP, is reported as Pathogenic (2 star) by other diagnostic laboratories (ClinVar Variation ID: 39444) and is reported in HGMD as disease causing with a dilated cardiomyopathy phenotype (CM087605). Computational predictions support a deleterious effect on the gene or gene product (PP3). -

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The Arg222Gln variant in SCN5A has been reported in at least 8 families with DCM , LQTS and/or arrhythmias and segregated with disease in at least 38 relatives a cross (Hershberger 2008, Kapplinger 2009, Morales 2010, Mann 2012, Laurent 2012, Nair 2012, McNair 2012). Electrophysiological studies have shown that the Arg22 2Gln variant impacts protein function (Mann 2012, Laurent 2012, Nair 2012, Cheng 2012). This variant has not been identified in large and broad European America n and African American populations by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http:/ /evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs45546039), which is consistent with a pathog enic role. In summary, this variant meets our criteria to be classified as patho genic (http://pcpgm.partners.org/LMM) based upon segregation studies and absence from controls. -
