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]

Episodic ataxia type 2;C4310716:Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 42 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 23, 2022In 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. 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 not expected to disrupt CACNA1A protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68419). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with familial hemiplegic migraine and/or progressive spinocerebellar ataxia (PMID: 20682717). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 405 of the CACNA1A protein (p.Ala405Thr). -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 19, 2022Reported previously in three affected females from a family with a spectrum of phenotypes including episodic ataxia, progressive spinocerebellar ataxia, and familial hemiplegic migraine; two male carriers in this family were reported to be unaffected, suggesting additional genetic and environmental factors may affect the clinical presentation (Romaniello et al., 2010); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 24486772, 27871455, 20682717, 32116539) -
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 42 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteFeb 02, 2022Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as VUS-3B. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Loss of function and gain of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene. Type 2 episodic ataxia (MIM#108500) is mostly associated with loss of function, while familial hemiplegic migraine 1, with or without progressive cerebellar ataxia (MIM#141500) is associated with gain of function. Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 42 (MIM#617106) is associated with both mechanisms, and spinocerebellar ataxia 6 (MIM#183086) is associated with CAG repeat expansion. (OMIM, PMIDs: 25735478, 28566750, 31468518, 32116539). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance. Asymptomatic family members have been reported to carry the same variant as the affected family members (PMIDs: 10408533, 30142438). (I) 0115 - Variants in this gene are known to have variable expressivity. Intrafamilial variability has been reported for episodic ataxia, intellectual disability and/or epilepsy (PMIDs: 30142438, 32910250). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from alanine to threonine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.001 for a dominant condition (2 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v3) (1 heterozygote, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated intracellular loop between transmembrane domains DI and DII (PMID: 20682717). (I) 0705 - No comparable missense variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. It has been reported in a family in three affected members showing a spectrum of phenotypes including progressive spinocerebellar ataxia 6, episodic ataxia type 2 and familial hemiplegic migraine, and two unaffected members (PMID: 20682717). It has also been reported as a VUS once in ClinVar. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1206 - This variant has been shown to be paternally inherited (by trio analysis). (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
