Genes affected
CACNA1S (HGNC:1397): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 S) This gene encodes one of the five subunits of the slowly inactivating L-type voltage-dependent calcium channel in skeletal muscle cells. Mutations in this gene have been associated with hypokalemic periodic paralysis, thyrotoxic periodic paralysis and malignant hyperthermia susceptibility. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 5;C3714580:Hypokalemic periodic paralysis, type 1 Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 19, 2024This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 40 of the CACNA1S gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CACNA1S are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 26247046, 28012042). This variant is present in population databases (rs148989517, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNA1S-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 541072). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 09, 2022Variant summary: CACNA1S c.5049-2A>G is located in a canonical splice-site and is predicted to affect mRNA splicing resulting in a significantly altered protein due to either exon skipping, shortening, or inclusion of intronic material. Several computational tools predict a significant impact on normal splicing: Four predict the variant abolishes a canonical 3' acceptor site. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8.8e-05 in 251240 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 70-fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CACNA1S causing Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis phenotype (1.3e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.5049-2A>G in individuals affected with Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. One classified it as likely pathogenic and two as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
