Genes affected
HCN4 (HGNC:16882): (hyperpolarization activated cyclic nucleotide gated potassium channel 4) This gene encodes a member of the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channels. The encoded protein shows slow kinetics of activation and inactivation, and is necessary for the cardiac pacemaking process. This channel may also mediate responses to sour stimuli. Mutations in this gene have been linked to sick sinus syndrome 2, also known as atrial fibrillation with bradyarrhythmia or familial sinus bradycardia. Two pseudogenes have been identified on chromosome 15. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

HCN4 NM_005477.2 exon 3 p.Val415Met (c.1243G>A): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.3% (133/35436) of Latino alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (https://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/15-73624600-C-T). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:412788). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely 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. -
