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.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Trp1408*) in the SCN1A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SCN1A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17347258, 18930999). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy (PMID: 12566275). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189947). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

A heterozygous nonsense variation in exon 24 of the SCN1A gene (c.4223G>A) that results in a stop codon and premature truncation of the protein at codon 1408 (p.Trp1408Ter) was detected. The observed variant is not present in both the 1000 Genomes and gnomAD databases. The reference base is conserved across the species and in-silico prediction by Mutation taster is damaging. This variant has previously been reported for Dravet Syndrome by Xu X. et al., 2015. The stop gained p.Trp1408Ter in SCN1A (NM_001165963.4) has been reported to ClinVar as Pathogenic with a status of (1 stars) criteria provided, single submitter (Variation ID 189947 as of 2020-03-05). The gene SCN1A has a low rate of benign loss of function variants as indicated by a high LoF variants Z-Score of 7.90. The p.Trp1408Ter variant is a loss of function variant in the gene SCN1A, which is intolerant of Loss of Function variants, as indicated by the presence of existing pathogenic loss of function variant NP_001159435.1:p.Met1Ile and 346 others. There are 88 downstream pathogenic loss of function variants, with the furthest variant being 518 residues downstream of the variant p.Trp1408Ter. Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines. -
