Genes affected
CLCN1 (HGNC:2019): (chloride voltage-gated channel 1) The CLCN family of voltage-dependent chloride channel genes comprises nine members (CLCN1-7, Ka and Kb) which demonstrate quite diverse functional characteristics while sharing significant sequence homology. The protein encoded by this gene regulates the electric excitability of the skeletal muscle membrane. Mutations in this gene cause two forms of inherited human muscle disorders: recessive generalized myotonia congenita (Becker) and dominant myotonia (Thomsen). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form;C2936781:Congenital myotonia, autosomal dominant form Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 30, 2023This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 291 of the CLCN1 protein (p.Glu291Lys). This variant is present in population databases (rs121912805, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive myotonia congenita (PMID: 8845168, 23739125, 27415035). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 17541). 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 CLCN1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CLCN1 function (PMID: 8845168). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
