Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Strong

The NM_001165963.4(SCN1A):​c.4408G>C​(p.Gly1470Arg) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 14/22 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G1470W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

SCN1A (HGNC:10585): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1) Voltage-dependent sodium channels are heteromeric complexes that regulate sodium exchange between intracellular and extracellular spaces and are essential for the generation and propagation of action potentials in muscle cells and neurons. Each sodium channel is composed of a large pore-forming, glycosylated alpha subunit and two smaller beta subunits. This gene encodes a sodium channel alpha subunit, which has four homologous domains, each of which contains six transmembrane regions. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures and epileptic encephalopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The RefSeq Project has decided to create four representative RefSeq records. Three of the transcript variants are supported by experimental evidence and the fourth contains alternate 5' untranslated exons, the exact combination of which have not been experimentally confirmed for the full-length transcript.

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 15 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 13 uncertain in NM_001165963.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the SCN1A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 848 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 89 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 5.2206 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 7.6022 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to familial or sporadic hemiplegic migraine, myoclonic-astatic epilepsy, arthrogryposis, Dravet syndrome, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 2, migraine, familial hemiplegic, 3, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 6A, familial hemiplegic migraine, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.989

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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SCN1A-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 1470 of the SCN1A protein (p.Gly1470Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine.
