Genes affected

CHRNA6 (HGNC:15963): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 6 subunit) This gene encodes an alpha subunit of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors. These receptors consist of five subunits and function as ion channels involved in neurotransmission. The encoded protein is a subunit of neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors that mediate dopaminergic neurotransmission and are activated by acetylcholine and exogenous nicotine. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been observed for this gene. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene have been associated with both nicotine and alcohol dependence.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.44).
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=2.98 with no splicing effect.
