ENST00000415950.5:c.673C>T
Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -5 ACMG points: 0P and 5B. BP4_StrongBS1_Supporting
The ENST00000415950.5(SCN1B):c.673C>T(p.Arg225Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000663 in 1,552,498 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 15/20 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R225P) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Variant summary: SCN1B c.673C>T (p.Arg225Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00012 in 156104 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in SCN1B causing SCN1B-Related Disorders, allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.673C>T has been reported in the literature in a case of sudden infant death syndrome (example: Neubauer_2018). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with SCN1B-Related Disorders. At least one publication reports experimental evidence that this variant has a loss of function effect on sodium current, however, does not allow convincing conclusions about the variant effect (example: Neubauer_2018). The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 29915715). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242250). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Brugada syndrome 5 Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 225 of the SCN1B protein (p.Arg225Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs369588692, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with sudden infant death syndrome (PMID: 28074886, 29915715). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 242250). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The cysteine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN1B function (PMID: 29915715). 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. -
