Genes affected

KCNT1 (HGNC:18865): (potassium sodium-activated channel subfamily T member 1) Potassium channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a sodium-activated potassium channel subunit which is thought to function in ion conductance and developmental signaling pathways. Mutations in this gene cause the early-onset epileptic disorders, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy and autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

SOHLH1 (HGNC:27845): (spermatogenesis and oogenesis specific basic helix-loop-helix 1) This gene encodes one of testis-specific transcription factors which are essential for spermatogenesis, oogenesis and folliculogenesis. This gene is located on chromosome 9. Mutations in this gene are associated with nonobstructive azoospermia. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2013]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant located near the start codon (<100nt), not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 32 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Val13Argfs*18) in the KCNT1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. However, the current clinical and genetic evidence is not sufficient to establish whether loss-of-function variants in KCNT1 cause disease. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNT1-related conditions. This premature translational stop signal has been observed in at least one individual who was not affected with KCNT1-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1045803). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
