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]

This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 555 of the SCN5A protein (p.Glu555Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473123, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Brugada syndrome (PMID: 12639704). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67676). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect SCN5A function (PMID: 24573164). 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.

This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 555 of the SCN5A protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). An experimental functional study has shown that this variant causes a partial reduction in sodium current density when co-expressed with wild type protein in HEK293 cells, as well as in human cardiomyocytes (PMID: 24573164). Clinical relevance of this observation is not clear. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with Brugada syndrome (PMID:12639704). This variant has been identified in 9/280418 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.

The c.1663G>A (p.E555K) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 11) of the SCN5A gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1663, causing the glutamic acid (E) at amino acid position 555 to be replaced by a lysine (K). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
