Genes affected

SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) 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. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the gnomAD v2.1.1 dataset (total allele frequency: <0.001%). Missense changes are a common disease-causing mechanism. In silico tool predictions suggest damaging effect of the variant on gene or gene product (REVEL: 0.92; 3Cnet: 0.91). Same nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000005903). The variant has been reported to co-segregate with the disease in at least 3 similarly affected relatives/individuals in the same family or similarly affected unrelated families (PMID: 27415035). Different missense changes at the same codon (p.Gly1306Ala, p.Gly1306Glu) have been reported as pathogenic/likely pathogenic with strong evidence (ClinVar ID: VCV000005908, VCV000005920). Therefore, this variant is classified as Pathogenic according to the recommendation of ACMG/AMP guideline. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant associates with paramyotonia congenita in multiple families, and is reported in multiple other unrelated individuals with non-dystrophic myotonia. At least one other missense variant at this codon is considered to be pathogenic or likely pathogenic. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. Multiple studies indicate that this variant disrupts normal ion channel properties, resulting in aberrant channel regulation of current and signaling (PMID: 7473241, 16392038). -

Reported previously as a heterozygous variant in two unrelated families with paramyotonia congenita (McClatchey et al., 1992); Functional studies suggest that G1306V results in slower inactivation of the SCN4A sodium channel (Lerche et al., 1993); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); 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: 25525159, 8308722, 1310898, 27415035, 26944947, 18337100, 18337730, 28150151, 26885337, 26080010, 22094069, 20445432, 17823953, 16832098, 8044656, 16392038, 7473241, 32849172, 32660787) -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1306 of the SCN4A protein (p.Gly1306Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs80338792, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with paramyotonia congenita (PMID: 1310898, 8044656, 8308722, 17823953, 18337100, 18337730, 20445432, 22094069, 27415035). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5903). 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 SCN4A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN4A function (PMID: 7473241, 16392038). This variant disrupts the p.Gly1306 amino acid residue in SCN4A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 7980103, 16832098, 20713951, 25088311, 25311598, 26080010, 26885337, 26944947). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
