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]

Observed in one individual from a cohort of individuals not selected for cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia, or family history of sudden cardiac death, who underwent exome sequencing (Ng et al., 2013), although a follow-up cardiac evaluation was not reported; Identified independently and in conjunction with additional variants in individuals referred for cardiac genetic testing at GeneDx; segregation data are limited or absent at this time; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23861362) -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 632 of the HCN4 protein (p.Met632Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs200737571, gnomAD 0.07%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with HCN4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191453). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt HCN4 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1

Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.M632I variant (also known as c.1896G>A), located in coding exon 6 of the HCN4 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1896. The methionine at codon 632 is replaced by isoleucine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
