Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PVS1 PM2

The NM_006030.4(CACNA2D2):​c.3421_3430del​(p.Arg1141GlufsTer29) variant causes a frameshift, stop lost change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. R1141R) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected

CACNA2D2 (HGNC:1400): (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 2) Calcium channels mediate the entry of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. This gene encodes the alpha-2/delta subunit of the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. The complex consists of the main channel-forming subunit alpha-1, and auxiliary subunits alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma. The auxiliary subunits function in the assembly and membrane localization of the complex, and modulate calcium currents and channel activation/inactivation kinetics. The subunit encoded by this gene undergoes post-translational cleavage to yield the extracellular alpha2 peptide and a membrane-anchored delta polypeptide. This subunit is a receptor for the antiepileptic drug, gabapentin. Mutations in this gene are associated with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in this gene are correlated with increased sensitivity to opioid drugs. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.

LOC127898564 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Stoplost variant. No alternative stopcodon identified downstream, so we assume a Nonstop Mediated Decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

This sequence change results in a frameshift in the CACNA2D2 gene (p.Arg1141Glufs*29). While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 3 amino acid(s) of the CACNA2D2 protein and extend the protein by 25 additional amino acid residues. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CACNA2D2-related conditions. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
