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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsMay 08, 2023The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been identified in multiple unrelated individuals with paramyotonia congenita. This variant segregates with disease in multiple families. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 9660885, 30611854) -

Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 31, 2023This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1293 of the SCN4A protein (p.Val1293Ile). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant paramyotonia congenita and myotonia congenita (PMID: 8580427, 23771340, 24939454, 27486940). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 5909). 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 SCN4A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN4A function (PMID: 9660885, 11744749). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
