Genes affected

GLRA1 (HGNC:4326): (glycine receptor alpha 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of a pentameric inhibitory glycine receptor, which mediates postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. Defects in this gene are a cause of startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

Broad Center for Mendelian Genomics, Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: research

The heterozygous p.Gly370Ser variant, sometimes called p.Gly342Ser or p.Gly378Ser due to a difference in cDNA numbering, in GLRA1 has been identified in an individual with hyperekplexia and their unaffected parent (PMID: 10817489). This variant has also been identified in >1% of European (non-Finnish) chromosomes and 7 homozygotes by ExAC (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/). In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Gly370Ser variant may not impact protein function (PMID: 10817489). However, these types of assays may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely benign for hyperekplexia. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. The evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was sufficient to determine this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -
