Genes affected
GLRA1 (HGNC:4326): (glycine receptor alpha 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of a pentameric inhibitory glycine receptor, which mediates postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. Defects in this gene are a cause of startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Tyr230*) in the GLRA1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in GLRA1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 20631190, 24108130). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive hyperekplexia (PMID: 11702206). This variant is also known as C986A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 16069). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
