Genes affected

SCN1A (HGNC:10585): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1) Voltage-dependent sodium channels are heteromeric complexes that regulate sodium exchange between intracellular and extracellular spaces and are essential for the generation and propagation of action potentials in muscle cells and neurons. Each sodium channel is composed of a large pore-forming, glycosylated alpha subunit and two smaller beta subunits. This gene encodes a sodium channel alpha subunit, which has four homologous domains, each of which contains six transmembrane regions. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures and epileptic encephalopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The RefSeq Project has decided to create four representative RefSeq records. Three of the transcript variants are supported by experimental evidence and the fourth contains alternate 5' untranslated exons, the exact combination of which have not been experimentally confirmed for the full-length transcript.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 15 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 10 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_001165963.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), SCN1A. . Gene score misZ 5.2206 (greater than the threshold 3.09). Trascript score misZ 7.6022 (greater than threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with migraine, familial hemiplegic, 3, familial hemiplegic migraine, Dravet syndrome, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, myoclonic-astatic epilepsy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 6, familial or sporadic hemiplegic migraine, arthrogryposis, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 2.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.91
• PP5: Variant 2-166073371-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-166073371-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 68520.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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 SCN1A protein function. This variant has been reported in individual(s) with Dravet syndrome (PMID: 17347258, 23195492, 22050978). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68520). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces tyrosine with cysteine at codon 84 of the SCN1A protein (p.Tyr84Cys). The tyrosine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between tyrosine and cysteine. -
