Genes affected

SCN8A (HGNC:10596): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 8) This gene encodes a member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. The encoded protein forms the ion pore region of the voltage-gated sodium channel. This protein is essential for the rapid membrane depolarization that occurs during the formation of the action potential in excitable neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with cognitive disability, pancerebellar atrophy and ataxia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

ACMG classification

Specifications for SCN8A are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the SCN8A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 213 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 45 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.78755 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 10.436 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to seizures, benign familial infantile, 5, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 13, myoclonus, familial, 2, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, benign familial infantile epilepsy, cognitive impairment with or without cerebellar ataxia, undetermined early-onset epileptic encephalopathy, infantile convulsions and choreoathetosis.
• BP6: Variant 12-51663019-A-G is Benign according to our data. Variant chr12-51663019-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 212135.
