Genes affected
CACNA1A (HGNC:1388): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 A) Voltage-dependent calcium channels mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells, and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, and gene expression. Calcium channels are multisubunit complexes composed of alpha-1, beta, alpha-2/delta, and gamma subunits. The channel activity is directed by the pore-forming alpha-1 subunit, whereas, the others act as auxiliary subunits regulating this activity. The distinctive properties of the calcium channel types are related primarily to the expression of a variety of alpha-1 isoforms, alpha-1A, B, C, D, E, and S. This gene encodes the alpha-1A subunit, which is predominantly expressed in neuronal tissue. Mutations in this gene are associated with 2 neurologic disorders, familial hemiplegic migraine and episodic ataxia 2. This gene also exhibits polymorphic variation due to (CAG)n-repeats. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. In one set of transcript variants, the (CAG)n-repeats occur in the 3' UTR, and are not associated with any disease. But in another set of variants, an insertion extends the coding region to include the (CAG)n-repeats which encode a polyglutamine tract. Expansion of the (CAG)n-repeats from the normal 4-18 to 21-33 in the coding region is associated with spinocerebellar ataxia 6. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCeGaT Center for Human Genetics TuebingenMar 01, 2018- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsMay 16, 2024The frequency of this variant in the general population (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) is consistent with pathogenicity. This variant has been identified in individuals with familial hemiplegic migraine (FHM) and/or cerebellar ataxia, and segregates with disease in at least one family. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 24498617) -
Hereditary episodic ataxia Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 25, 2023Variant summary: CACNA1A c.1502C>T (p.Thr501Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change to a highly conserved residue (HGMD) located in the Ion transport domain (IPR005821) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 248946 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1502C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with familial hemiplegic migraine as well as individuals with episodic ataxia (Mantuano_2010, Carreno_2013, Romozzi_2021). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function, finding that the variant results in a gain of channel function (Carreno_2013). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 20129625, 24498617, 34320921, 28566750). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014, and classified it as pathogenic (n=2) or uncertain significance (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Episodic ataxia type 2;C4310716:Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 42 Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 21, 2024This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 501 of the CACNA1A protein (p.Thr501Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs121908240, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with CACNA1A-related conditions (PMID: 20129625, 24498617, 34320921). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68421). 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 CACNA1A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CACNA1A function (PMID: 24498617). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
