Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PS2PM6PM1PM2_SupportingPS3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The c.2624T>C variant in SCN3A is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of isoleucine by threonine at amino acid 875 (p.Ile875Thr). The variant has been identified as a de novo occurrence with confirmed parental relationships in at least 4 individual(s) with DEE (PMIDs: 29740860, 29466837) (PS2_Very Strong) and as a de novo occurrance with unconfirmed parental relationship in a least 2 individuals with DEE (PMIDs: 29286531, 28191890) (PM6_Moderate), with additional case evidence available in the literature. The variant is absent from gnomAD v2.1.1 (PM2_Supporting). Studies have observed that when expressed in mammalian cells in culture, this variant causes a gain-of-function effect on the mutant channels as evidenced by a significant leftward/hyperpolarized shift in the voltage dependence of activation, an increase in the persistent/inactivating current, and a rightward/depolarizing shift in the voltage of inactivation (PS3; PMID:29466837). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for autosomal dominant developmental and epilepstic encephalopathy based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Epilepsy Sodium Channel VCEP: PS2_VS, PM6_Moderate, PM2_Supporting, PS3.

Genes affected
SCN3A (HGNC:10590): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 3) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family, and is found in a cluster of five alpha subunit genes on chromosome 2. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.1.1, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Both loss- and gain-of-function are known mechanisms of disease for this gene. Loss of function effects have been shown to be associated with focal epilepsy whilst gain of function effects have been shown to be associated with epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 29466837, 28235671). (N) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from an isoleucine to a threonine (exon 17). (N) 0251 - Variant is heterozygous. (N) 0107 - This gene is known to be associated with autosomal dominant disease. (N) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD. (P) 0600 - Variant is located in an annotated domain or motif (S4-S5 linker of ion transport domain II (PMID: 30146301, 29466837)). (N) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (P) 0801 - Strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has previously been reported de novo in patients with epileptic encephalopathy with cerebral cortical development malformations (ClinVar; Decipher; PMID: 29740860, 30146301, 29466837, 30904718). (P) 1002 - Moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Cell lines expressing this variant demonstrated gain of function effects (PMID: 30146301, 29466837). (P) 1203 - Variant shown to be de novo in proband (parental status confirmed). (P) Legend: (P) - Pathogenic, (N) - Neutral, (B) - Benign -

The variant is not observed in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset. Predicted Consequence/Location: Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. Functional studies provide moderate evidence of the variant having a damaging effect on the gene or gene product (PMID: 29466837). In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product [REVEL: 0.98 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.68 and specificity 0.92); 3Cnet: 0.99 (>=0.6, sensitivity 0.72 and precision 0.9)]. Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000373960 /PMID: 29286531). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 875 of the SCN3A protein (p.Ile875Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with polymicrogyria and early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 29466837, 29740860; internal data). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 373960). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SCN3A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN3A function (PMID: 29466837). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
