Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points: 3P and 13B. PM1PP2BP4_StrongBP6BS1BS2

The NM_001040142.2(SCN2A):​c.100G>A​(p.Ala34Thr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00059 in 1,614,094 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A34V) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
SCN2A (HGNC:10588): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 2) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with four repeat domains, each of which is composed of six membrane-spanning segments, and one or more regulatory beta subunits. Voltage-gated sodium channels function in the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with seizure disorders and autism spectrum disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -10 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 16 uncertain in NM_001040142.2
PP2
Missense variant in the SCN2A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 362 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 36 curated benign missense variants. Trascript score misZ: 8.7114 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, episodic ataxia, type 9, seizures, benign familial infantile, 3, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures, Dravet syndrome, infantile spasms, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 11, intellectual disability, benign familial infantile epilepsy, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy.

Significance:Likely benign
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -

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

This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
