Genes affected

GABRA1 (HGNC:4075): (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit alpha1) This gene encodes a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. GABA-A receptors are pentameric, consisting of proteins from several subunit classes: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and rho. Mutations in this gene cause juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and childhood absence epilepsy type 4. Multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), GABRA1. . Gene score misZ 3.1498 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 4.2662 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 19, epilepsy, idiopathic generalized, susceptibility to, 13, Dravet syndrome, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.899
• PP5: Variant 5-161890945-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr5-161890945-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 127073.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr5-161890945-G-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GABRA1 function (PMID: 24623842). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GABRA1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 127073). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Dravet syndrome (PMID: 24623842). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 251 of the GABRA1 protein (p.Gly251Ser). -
