Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -1 ACMG points: 4P and 5B. PM2PM5BP6BS1
The NM_000069.3(CACNA1S):c.1493G>T(p.Arg498Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000927 in 1,614,166 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. 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. R498C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp | Jan 23, 2025 | Variant summary: CACNA1S c.1493G>T (p.Arg498Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the voltage-dependent channel domain (IPR027359) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00096 in 1461834 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0012 within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency within Non-Finnish European control individuals in the gnomAD database is slightly higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CACNA1S causing Congenital myopathy 18-AR phenotype (0.0011). c.1493G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, malignant hyperthermia, and early onset small-fiber neuropathy (e.g., Gillies_2015, Goodloe_2014, Misra_2024, Sambuughin_2018). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Congenital myopathy 18-AR. 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: 25735680, 25132214, 39000354, 30094188). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 279727). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. - |
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Ambry Genetics | Sep 03, 2022 | The c.1493G>T (p.R498L) alteration is located in exon 11 (coding exon 11) of the CACNA1S gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 1493, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 498 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on data from gnomAD, the T allele has an overall frequency of 0.06% (168/282898) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.1% (127/129198) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This alteration was reported to be heterozygous in an individual with malignant hyperthermia susceptibility with positive in vitro contracture tests (Gillies, 2015). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. The p.R498L alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. - |
Hypokalemic periodic paralysis, type 1 Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina | Jan 12, 2018 | 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. - |
