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.

The c.3809A>C (p.K1270T) alteration is located in exon 19 (coding exon 19) of the SCN1A gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 3809, causing the lysine (K) at amino acid position 1270 to be replaced by a threonine (T). for autosomal dominant SCN1A-related seizure disorders; however, its clinical significance for autosomal dominant SCN1A-related hemiplegic migraine is uncertain. This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant was identified in one or more individuals with features consistent with SCN1A-related seizure disorders and segregated with disease in at least one family (Abou-Khalil, 2001). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. Animal models expressing this variant exhibited phenotype(s) consistent with SCN1A-related seizure disorders (Das, 2021; Sun, 2012; Schutte, 2014). In multiple assays testing SCN1A function, this variant showed functionally abnormal results (Xie, 2020). This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as pathogenic. -

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1270 of the SCN1A protein (p.Lys1270Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS+) (PMID: 11756608). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 12891). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SCN1A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
