Genes affected
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]

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 06, 2023The c.3742G>A (p.D1248N) alteration is located in exon 17 (coding exon 16) of the CACNA1H gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 3742, causing the aspartic acid (D) at amino acid position 1248 to be replaced by an asparagine (N). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Idiopathic generalized epilepsy;C4310756:Hyperaldosteronism, familial, type IV Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 11, 2023This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1248 of the CACNA1H protein (p.Asp1248Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs552269381, gnomAD 0.07%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNA1H-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 460097). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
