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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -12 ACMG points.

PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 97 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 19 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.5606 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.2224 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to congenital myasthenic syndrome 16, paramyotonia congenita of Von Eulenburg, hyperkalemic periodic paralysis, hypokalemic periodic paralysis, type 2, congenital myopathy, hypokalemic periodic paralysis, SCN4A-related myopathy, autosomal recessive, congenital myopathy 22A, classic, potassium-aggravated myotonia, postsynaptic congenital myasthenic syndrome, myotonia fluctuans, myotonia permanens, acetazolamide-responsive myotonia.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.006765276).
BP6
Variant 17-63972796-A-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-63972796-A-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 573445.We mark this variant Likely_benign, oryginal submission is: [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity].
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000807 (118/1461336) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.00133 (115/86220). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00114. There are 2 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 87 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAdExome4 at 2 AR,AD gene
