Genes affected

SCN2A (HGNC:10588): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 2) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with four repeat domains, each of which is composed of six membrane-spanning segments, and one or more regulatory beta subunits. Voltage-gated sodium channels function in the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with seizure disorders and autism spectrum disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Loss of function and gain of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene. Variants causing a gain of function result in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 11 (MIM#613721) or benign familial infantile seizures 3 (MIM#607745), whereas variants causing loss of function result in autism spectrum disorder and/or intellectual disability, with or without childhood-onset seizures (OMIM, PMIDs: 29691040, 31904126). 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from arginine to proline. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2) (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated ion transport domain (DECIPHER). (I) 0701 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have very strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. Alternative missense changes of this arginine residue to glutamine, leucine, and tryptophan have been reported pathogenic by clinical labs in ClinVar and in the literature in individuals with epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 28379373). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been identified de novo in individuals with intellectual disability and seizures (PMID: 27824329, 31175295). (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1203 - This variant has been shown to be de novo in the proband (parental status confirmed; by trio analysis). (SP) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Significance: Likely pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg1319 amino acid residue in SCN2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15048894, 18479388, 28379373). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with SCN2A-related conditions (PMID: 27824329, 28191889, 31175295, 33004838). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1319 of the SCN2A protein (p.Arg1319Pro). -
