Genes affected

SCN1A (HGNC:10585): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1) Voltage-dependent sodium channels are heteromeric complexes that regulate sodium exchange between intracellular and extracellular spaces and are essential for the generation and propagation of action potentials in muscle cells and neurons. Each sodium channel is composed of a large pore-forming, glycosylated alpha subunit and two smaller beta subunits. This gene encodes a sodium channel alpha subunit, which has four homologous domains, each of which contains six transmembrane regions. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures and epileptic encephalopathy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The RefSeq Project has decided to create four representative RefSeq records. Three of the transcript variants are supported by experimental evidence and the fourth contains alternate 5' untranslated exons, the exact combination of which have not been experimentally confirmed for the full-length transcript.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 6 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_001165963.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM4: Nonframeshift variant in NON repetitive region in NM_001165963.4. Strenght limited to Supporting due to length of the change: 1aa.
• PP5: Variant 2-166073405-C-CCAT is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr2-166073405-C-CCAT is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 530496.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

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. This variant identified in the SCN1A gene is located in the cytoplasmic N-terminal region of the resulting protein (PMID: 25348405, 18804930), but it is unclear how this variant impacts the function of this protein. Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available for this variant, and the functional significance of the duplicated amino acid is currently unknown. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SCN1A-related disease. However, it has been observed to be de novo in an individual with clinical features suggestive of Dravet syndrome (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant, c.214_216dupATG, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid to the SCN1A protein (p.Met72dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. -
