The SCN1A p.P1984H variant was not identified in the literature but was identified in dbSNP (ID: rs146733308) and ClinVar (classified as uncertain significance by GeneDx, EGL Genetic Diagnostics, and Fulgent Genetics; as likely benign by Invitae; and as benign by Ambry Genetics). The variant was identified in control databases in 61 of 282118 chromosomes at a frequency of 0.0002162, and was observed at the highest frequency in the African population in 59 of 24952 chromosomes (freq: 0.002365) (Genome Aggregation Database March 6, 2019, v2.1.1). This frequency is greater than expected for the rare, autosomal dominant epilepsy with febrile seizures and early infantile epileptic encephalopathy conditions associated with SCN1A variants. The p.P1984 residue is conserved in mammals and more distantly related organisms, and computational analyses (MUT Assesor, PolyPhen-2, SIFT, MutationTaster, Revel, FATHMM, MetaLR, DANN) suggest that the variant may impact the protein; however, this information is not predictive enough to assume pathogenicity. The variant occurs outside of the splicing consensus sequence and in silico or computational prediction software programs (Splice AI exome) do not predict a difference in splicing. In summary, based on the above information the clinical significance of this variant cannot be determined with certainty at this time although we would lean towards a more benign role for this variant. This variant is classified as likely benign. -

The SCN1A c.5951C>A (p.Pro1984His) variant identified substitutes a highly conserved Proline for Histidine at amino acid 1973/1999 (coding exon 29/29). In silico algorithms predict this variant to be Deleterious (Provean; score:-6.60) and Damaging (SIFT; score:0.00) to the function of the canonical transcript. The c.5951C>A (p.Pro1984His) variant has been reported in ClinVar as a Variant of Uncertain Significance (VarID: 93661), and has been reported a single time in a large cohort study of pediatric patients with drug resistant epilepsy [PMID: 29353705], with no patient specific phenotype information. Given the lack of compelling information supporting its pathogenicity, the c.5951C>A (p.Pro1984His) variant identified in the SCN1A gene is reported here as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Inborn genetic diseases    Benign:1 
This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy    Benign:1

SCN1A-related disorder    Benign:1 
This variant is classified as likely benign based on ACMG/AMP sequence variant interpretation guidelines (Richards et al. 2015 PMID: 25741868, with internal and published modifications). -
