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.

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 30 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_001165963.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr2-166047634-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1003488.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the SCN1A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 848 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 89 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 5.2206 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 7.6022 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to familial or sporadic hemiplegic migraine, myoclonic-astatic epilepsy, arthrogryposis, Dravet syndrome, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 2, migraine, familial hemiplegic, 3, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 6A, familial hemiplegic migraine, generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.

This sequence change replaces tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 388 of the SCN1A protein (p.Tyr388His). 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 (PMID: 19464195). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68586). 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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The Y388H variant in the SCN1A gene has been reported previously in multiple affected individuals in a family with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (Mahoney et al., 2009). The Y388H variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The Y388H variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a conserved position predicted to be within the pore forming loop between the S5 and S6 transmembrane segments of the first homologous domain, and multiple missense variants in nearby residues have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with SCN1A-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. -
