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 replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 219 of the SCN5A protein (p.Arg219His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of SCN5A-related conditions (PMID: 22675453, 24762805, 26304136). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242206). 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: 22675453, 24762805, 30218094). This variant disrupts the p.Arg219 amino acid residue in SCN5A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with SCN5A-related conditions (PMID: 30193851), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Reported in association with DCM and arrhythmia (PMID: 22675453, 26304136); Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as this variant causes a delayed recovery from inactivation (PMID: 24762805); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); 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: 23818691, 24815523, 28018021, 25624448, 26801742, 26304136, 25741286, 28469493, 30218094, 30662450, 24762805, 34949099, 35650162, 38820625, 38232626, 22675453, 33640350) -

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

The p.R219H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.656G>A), located in coding exon 5 of the SCN5A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 656. The arginine at codon 219 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties, and is located in the voltage sensing S4 region. This alteration was detected in a proband with cardiac conduction disease and mild dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), and in two relatives with mild to borderline DCM (Gosselin-Badaroudine P et al. PLoS ONE. 2012;7:e38331). This alteration was also detected in two probands with sick sinus syndrome (SSS) and atrial arrhythmia or paralysis, and segregated with disease in two similarly affected relatives in one family (Robles C et al. Rev Esp Cardiol (Engl Ed). 2015;68:904-6; Abe K et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol. 2014;7:511-7). One in vitro functional study reported this alteration to result in a channel which selectively leaked protons, although channel kinetics were not impacted, while a second study reported this alteration to result in altered channel currents (Abe K et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol. 2014;7:511-7). Internal structural analysis has determined this alteration occurs at a position directly impacting the ion transport function. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -

Variant summary: SCN5A c.656G>A (p.Arg219His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Ion transport domain (IPR005821) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.9e-06 in 1610664 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.656G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Dilated Cardiomyopathy, sick sinus syndrome, or paralysis of the atrium. These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. Publications report experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant alters channel function (e.g. Abe_2014). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 22675453, 24762805, 26304136). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242206). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -

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

This missense variant replaces arginine with histidine at codon 219 of the SCN5A protein. This variant is found within the highly conserved S4 segment of transmembrane domain DI (a.a. 127-415). Rare non-truncating variants in this region have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with Brugada syndrome and long QT syndrome (PMID: 32893267). Multiple functional studies have shown that this variant impairs sodium channel function (PMID: 22675453, 24762805, 30218094, 38820625). The variant has been reported in a proband with a mixed phenotype of arrhythmia and dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 22675453) and in two probands affected with sick sinus syndrome (PMID: 24762805, 26304136). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in two of these families (PMID: 22675453, 26304136). The variant has also been observed in an individual affected with Brugda syndrome and in other individuals affected with arrhythmia or arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (communication with an external laboratory; ClinVar SCV000583001.6). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. -

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Arg219His variant in SCN5A has been reported in 2 individuals with sick sinus syndrome (SSS) and 1 individual with DCM and conduction disorder. The variant segregated with disease in 2 relatives with DCM and premature ventricular contractions and 2 members of a different family with SSS (Abe 2014 PMID: 24762805, Gosselin-Badaroudine 2012 PMID: 22675453, Robles 2015 PMID: 26304136). This variant was also observed in 3 unaffected relatives (Abe 2014 PMID: 24762805, Robles 2015 PMID: 26304136). It was absent from large population studies, but has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 242206). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that this variant impacts protein function (Abe 2014 PMID: 24762805, Gosselin-Badaroudine 2012 PMID: 22675453); however, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. Additionally, computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.Arg219His variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.
