The NM_001165963.4(SCN1A):c.4907G>A (p.Arg1636Gln) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant is absent from the gnomAD population database at sites with sufficient sequencing coverage. In-silico predictor (REVEL) classifies this variant as likely damaging/oncogenic. Splicing prediction tools (SpliceAI) predict no significant impact on normal splicing. The affected nucleotide is highly conserved across species (PhyloP 100-way vertebrate score: 7.77). Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (★★). A different missense at the same amino acid position has been reported as Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic in ClinVar: p.R1636G: Likely_pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 2031256, 1 star) Other variants at the same amino acid position have been reported in ClinVar (not pathogenic): p.R1636= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 951192, 2 stars) This exact variant is curated in the UniProt human variants database as Uncertain Significance.

Genes affected

SCN1A (HGNC:10585): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1) Voltage-dependent sodium channels are heteromeric complexes that regulate sodium exchange between intracellular and extracellular spaces and are essential for the generation and propagation of action potentials in muscle cells and neurons. Each sodium channel is composed of a large pore-forming, glycosylated alpha subunit and two smaller beta subunits. This gene encodes a sodium channel alpha subunit, which has four homologous domains, each of which contains six transmembrane regions. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures and epileptic encephalopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The RefSeq Project has decided to create four representative RefSeq records. Three of the transcript variants are supported by experimental evidence and the fourth contains alternate 5' untranslated exons, the exact combination of which have not been experimentally confirmed for the full-length transcript.

Classification according to ACMG Germline Pathogenicity v2019

Specifications for SCN1A are available in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry and recommended for reference when assigning criteria.

Classification was made for transcript:

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 points.

Apply	Criterion Code & Title / Strength	Strength	Rationale / Clinical Context
	PM1Mutational hot spot or critical domain		Missense neighbourhood hotspot (≥2 P/LP within ±8 AA, OR ≥ 5 vs. background) — PM1; In-domain: 0 pathogenic, 0 benign rare missense variants.; ±8 AA neighbourhood: 17 pathogenic, 0 benign (OR vs. background: 175.0).
	PM2Absent/extremely low in population databases		Absent from gnomAD (AD/XL gene) — PM2; Absent from gnomAD at well-covered site (MOI: AD/XL) (base 0.0001, raised to 0.000138 by highest known P/LP ClinVar AF 0.000138) — PM2 moderate.
	PM5Novel missense at known pathogenic residue		Different pathogenic missense at same AA residue in ClinVar (PM5); ClinVar contains a germline Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic entry at the same amino acid position with a different amino acid change: p.R1636G: Likely_pathogenic (ClinVar VariationId 2031256, 1 star); Other variants at the same amino acid residue (not pathogenic): p.R1636= (synonymous): Likely_benign (ClinVar VariationId 951192, 2 stars)
	PP2Missense in gene with low missense rate		Missense in gene constrained for missense variation where missense is common disease mechanism (PP2); Missense in a gene constrained for missense variation (gnomAD Z-score: 7.618). ClinVar shows strong pathogenic missense enrichment: 1210 P/LP and 153 B/LB missense entries (ratio 7.9×).
	PP3Computational evidence supports damaging effect		Germline meta computational scorer (REVEL/MetaRNN/BayesDel) predicts damaging effect — strong evidence (PP3); Splicing verdict: not pathogenic.; Germline computational verdict: pathogenic (Strong).
	PP5Reputable source reports pathogenic		ClinVar 2-star pathogenic — strong (PP5); ClinVar germline classification: Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic, 2 star(s).
