Genes affected
SCN8A (HGNC:10596): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 8) This gene encodes a member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. The encoded protein forms the ion pore region of the voltage-gated sodium channel. This protein is essential for the rapid membrane depolarization that occurs during the formation of the action potential in excitable neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with cognitive disability, pancerebellar atrophy and ataxia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the SCN8A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 213 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 45 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.78755 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 10.436 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to myoclonus, familial, 2, infantile convulsions and choreoathetosis, cognitive impairment with or without cerebellar ataxia, undetermined early-onset epileptic encephalopathy, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 13, benign familial infantile epilepsy, seizures, benign familial infantile, 5.

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1123 of the SCN8A protein (p.Lys1123Gln). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN8A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 530412). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SCN8A protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -

The inherited c.3367A>C (p.Lys1123Gln) variant identified in the SCN8A gene substitutes a very well conserved Lysine for Glutamine at amino acid 1123/1981 (exon 17/27). This variant is absent from gnomAD(v3.1.1), suggesting it is not a common benign variant in the populations represented in that database. In silico algorithms predict this variant to be Damaging (SIFT; score:0.013) and Pathogenic (REVEL; score:0.6389) to the function of the canonical transcript.This variant is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance in ClinVar (VarID:530412) and to our current knowledge has not been reported in affected individuals in the literature. The p.Lys1123 residue is within one of the cytoplasmic domains of SCN8A (UniProtKB:Q9UQD0). Given the lack of compelling evidence for its pathogenicity, the inherited c.3367A>C (p.Lys1123Gln) variant identified in the SCN8A gene is reported as a Variant of UncertainSignificance. -
