Genes affected
CACNA1C (HGNC:1390): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 C) This gene encodes an alpha-1 subunit of a voltage-dependent calcium channel. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. The alpha-1 subunit consists of 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. The calcium channel consists of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. There are multiple isoforms of each of these proteins, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. The protein encoded by this gene binds to and is inhibited by dihydropyridine. Alternative splicing results in many transcript variants encoding different proteins. Some of the predicted proteins may not produce functional ion channel subunits. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -11 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.33).
BP6
Variant 12-2653904-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr12-2653904-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 166772.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.000171 (26/152114) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.000655 (10/15276). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000354. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 14 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 26 AD gene.

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change falls in intron 33 of the CACNA1C gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CACNA1C protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs111442547, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNA1C-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 166772). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Dec 27, 2017
Ambry Genetics
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. -
