Genes affected
CLCN1 (HGNC:2019): (chloride voltage-gated channel 1) The CLCN family of voltage-dependent chloride channel genes comprises nine members (CLCN1-7, Ka and Kb) which demonstrate quite diverse functional characteristics while sharing significant sequence homology. The protein encoded by this gene regulates the electric excitability of the skeletal muscle membrane. Mutations in this gene cause two forms of inherited human muscle disorders: recessive generalized myotonia congenita (Becker) and dominant myotonia (Thomsen). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Variant summary: CLCN1 c.2926C>T (p.Arg976X) results in a premature termination codon, predicted to cause a truncation of the encoded protein by removing the last 13 amino acids. No pathogenic variants have been observed downstream. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 1613610 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote (gnomAD v4.1.0). This frequency is not significantly higher than estimated for a pathogenic variant in CLCN1 causing Myotonia congenita (0.00021 vs 0.0035), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2926C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Myotonia congenita (e.g., Suetterlin_2022, Modoni_2011, Vereb_2021, Morrow_2013, Chen_2013, Brugnoni_2013) without definitive evidence for causality. These data do not allow any conclusion about variant significance. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23739125, 23408874, 21221019, 23810313, 34529042, 33263785). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 199652). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg976*) in the CLCN1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 13 amino acid(s) of the CLCN1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs142539932, gnomAD 0.2%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive myotonia congenita and/or clinical features of autosomal recessive myotonia congenita (PMID: 21221019, 23408874, 33263785, 34529042, 36540316; internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 199652). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -
