Genes affected
CHRNA1 (HGNC:1955): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 1 subunit) The muscle acetylcholine receptor consiststs of 5 subunits of 4 different types: 2 alpha subunits and 1 each of the beta, gamma, and delta subunits. This gene encodes an alpha subunit that plays a role in acetlycholine binding/channel gating. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.

Submissions by phenotype

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Mar 03, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.1199A>G (p.K400R) alteration is located in exon 8 (coding exon 8) of the CHRNA1 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1199, causing the lysine (K) at amino acid position 400 to be replaced by an arginine (R). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Lethal multiple pterygium syndrome Uncertain:1
Feb 05, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 400 of the CHRNA1 protein (p.Lys400Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs137916282, gnomAD 0.01%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CHRNA1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 534527). 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 not expected to disrupt CHRNA1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
