Genes affected

SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a transmembrane_region Helical; Name=S5 of repeat II (size 18) in uniprot entity SCN4A_HUMAN there are 5 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000334.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.931
• PP5: Variant 17-63957443-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-63957443-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 374058.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=2, Pathogenic=2, Likely_pathogenic=3}. Variant chr17-63957443-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Athena Diagnostics	Oct 26, 2021	This variant has not been reported in large, multi-ethnic general populations (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with clinical features associated with this gene. Computational tools predict that this variant is damaging. -

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Centre for Mendelian Genomics, University Medical Centre Ljubljana	Jan 01, 2016	This variant was classified as: Pathogenic. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Oct 02, 2023	This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 699 of the SCN4A protein (p.Ala699Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with paramyotonia congenita (PMID: 27922499, 32660787, 32849172; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374058). 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 SCN4A protein function. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
