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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 20) in uniprot entity SCN4A_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000334.4
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.794

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1291 of the SCN4A protein (p.Ile1291Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs777298727, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of congenital myopathy (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 586514). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SCN4A protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) The variant is located in a region that is considered important for protein function and/or structure. Computational tools predict that this variant is damaging. -
