Genes affected
SCN5A (HGNC:10593): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5) The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel subunit. This protein is found primarily in cardiac muscle and is responsible for the initial upstroke of the action potential in an electrocardiogram. Defects in this gene have been associated with long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3), atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and Brugada syndrome 1, all autosomal dominant cardiac diseases. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 2003 of the SCN5A protein (p.Asp2003Asn). This variant is present in population databases (rs376697724, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with sudden unexplained death (PMID: 26164358). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 532063). 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 disruptive. 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. -

Identified in a patient who suffered sudden death during a psychiatric hospitalization (Farrugia et al., 2015); however, this patient harbored an additional cardiogenetic variant; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 26164358, 25904541) -

Brugada syndrome Pathogenic:1
May 24, 2025
Department of Genetics and Molecular Biology, Isfahan University of Medical Sciences
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Variant located in a mutational hotspot (PM1), absent from population controls (PM2), assumed de novo (PM6), and computational evidence supports deleterious effect (PP3). Classified as likely pathogenic due to cumulative evidence. The variant c.6004G>A is located in a highly conserved and functionally critical region of SCN5A, a known mutational hotspot associated with cardiac arrhythmias. It is absent from large population databases, supporting rarity. De novo occurrence has been assumed based on parental testing. Multiple in silico prediction tools indicate a deleterious effect on protein function. Clinical correlation with the patient’s phenotype of both Brugada syndrome and Long QT syndrome supports pathogenicity, though further functional studies are recommended to confirm the exact mechanism. -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.D2003N variant (also known as c.6007G>A), located in coding exon 27 of the SCN5A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 6007. The aspartic acid at codon 2003 is replaced by asparagine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration has been reported in a sudden unexplained death cohort (Farrugia A et al. Forensic Sci. Int., 2015 Sep;254:5-11). However, this alteration was also reported in one ostensibly healthy individual (Kapplinger JD et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2015 Aug;8:582-95). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
