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]

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: Stop-gained (nonsense): predicted to result in a loss or disruption of normal protein function through nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) or protein truncation. Multiple pathogenic variants are reported downstream of the variant. The variant has been reported at least twice as pathogenic with clinical assertions and evidence for the classification (ClinVar ID: VCV000419721 /PMID: 26993267). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

The c.4303C>T (p.R1435*) alteration, located in exon 23 (coding exon 22) of the SCN2A gene, consists of a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 4303. This changes the amino acid from an arginine (R) to a stop codon at amino acid position 1435. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. _x000D_ _x000D_ for autosomal dominant SCN2A-related neurodevelopmental disorder; however, its clinical significance for autosomal dominant SCN2A-related developmental and epileptic encephalopathy and autosomal dominant SCN2A-related benign familial infantile seizures is uncertain. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration has been reported in multiple individuals with features consistent with SCN2A-related neurodevelopmental disorder, including multiple cases of reported de novo occurrence (Trump, 2016; Wolff, 2017; Fernández-Marmiesse, 2019; Zeng, 2022; Gowda, 2023). Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1435*) in the SCN2A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SCN2A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 28379373). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autism spectrum disorders, severe intellectual disability, and/or seizures (PMID: 26993267, 28379373). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 419721). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

The SCN2A c.4303C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg1435*). This is a recurrent de novo variant that has been reported in multiple patients with SCN2A related autosomal dominant disorders (Trump et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26993267; Wolff et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28379373; Additional File 5 Data 2, Guo et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30564305; Fernández-Marmiesse et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31780880). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating it is rare. Nonsense variants in SCN2A are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -
