Genes affected

CLCN4 (HGNC:2022): (chloride voltage-gated channel 4) The CLCN family of voltage-dependent chloride channel genes comprises nine members (CLCN1-7, Ka and Kb) which demonstrate quite diverse functional characteristics while sharing significant sequence homology. Chloride channel 4 has an evolutionary conserved CpG island and is conserved in both mouse and hamster. This gene is mapped in close proximity to APXL (Apical protein Xenopus laevis-like) and OA1 (Ocular albinism type I), which are both located on the human X chromosome at band p22.3. The physiological role of chloride channel 4 remains unknown but may contribute to the pathogenesis of neuronal disorders. Alternate splicing results in two transcript variants that encode different proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 718 of the CLCN4 protein (p.Arg718Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs779824005, gnomAD 0.004%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with CLCN4-related conditions (PMID: 36385166). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 521940). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on CLCN4 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect CLCN4 function (PMID: 36385166). This variant disrupts the p.Arg718 amino acid residue in CLCN4. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 27550844, 29314583). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
