Genes affected

SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The c.365G>A (p.R122H) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the SCN4A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 365, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 122 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 122 of the SCN4A protein (p.Arg122His). This variant is present in population databases (rs374529559, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN4A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 448276). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on SCN4A protein function. 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. -
