Genes affected
CLCN2 (HGNC:2020): (chloride voltage-gated channel 2) This gene encodes a voltage-gated chloride channel. The encoded protein is a transmembrane protein that maintains chloride ion homeostasis in various cells. Defects in this gene may be a cause of certain epilepsies. Four transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Variant summary: CLCN2 c.246C>G (p.Phe82Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00013 in 248724 control chromosomes. c.246C>G has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with epilepsy without strong evidence of causality (Klassen_2011, Ganapathy_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with CLCN2-Related Disorders. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Two submitters have provided clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. One laboratory classified the variant as likely benign, and one classified it as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
