Genes affected
CACNA2D1 (HGNC:1399): (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 1) The preproprotein encoded by this gene is cleaved into multiple chains that comprise the alpha-2 and delta subunits of the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. Mutations in this gene can cause cardiac deficiencies, including Brugada syndrome and short QT syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants, some of which may lack the delta subunit portion. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

Jan 31, 2025
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glutamine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 299 of the CACNA2D1 protein (p.Gln299His). This variant is present in population databases (rs141238313, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNA2D1-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 423110). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant does not alter protein structure/function; Variants in candidate genes are classified as variants of uncertain significance in accordance with ACMG guidelines (PMID: 25741868) -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Apr 24, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.Q299H variant (also known as c.897G>C), located in coding exon 11 of the CACNA2D1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 897. The glutamine at codon 299 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and histidine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
