Our verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points: 0P and 12B. BP4_StrongBS1BS2
The NM_021098.3(CACNA1H):c.412-5C>T variant causes a splice region, splice polypyrimidine tract, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000122 in 1,551,660 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar.
CACNA1H (HGNC:1395): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 H) This gene encodes a T-type member of the alpha-1 subunit family, a protein in the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization and consist of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The alpha-1 subunit has 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. There are multiple isoforms of each of the proteins in the complex, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized for the gene described here. Studies suggest certain mutations in this gene lead to childhood absence epilepsy (CAE). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.83).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population eas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000046 (7/152192) while in subpopulation EAS AF= 0.000969 (5/5160). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000381. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 5 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck.
