Genes affected

CACNA1A (HGNC:1388): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 A) Voltage-dependent calcium channels mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells, and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, and gene expression. Calcium channels are multisubunit complexes composed of alpha-1, beta, alpha-2/delta, and gamma subunits. The channel activity is directed by the pore-forming alpha-1 subunit, whereas, the others act as auxiliary subunits regulating this activity. The distinctive properties of the calcium channel types are related primarily to the expression of a variety of alpha-1 isoforms, alpha-1A, B, C, D, E, and S. This gene encodes the alpha-1A subunit, which is predominantly expressed in neuronal tissue. Mutations in this gene are associated with 2 neurologic disorders, familial hemiplegic migraine and episodic ataxia 2. This gene also exhibits polymorphic variation due to (CAG)n-repeats. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. In one set of transcript variants, the (CAG)n-repeats occur in the 3' UTR, and are not associated with any disease. But in another set of variants, an insertion extends the coding region to include the (CAG)n-repeats which encode a polyglutamine tract. Expansion of the (CAG)n-repeats from the normal 4-18 to 21-33 in the coding region is associated with spinocerebellar ataxia 6. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -21 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.73).
• BP6: Variant 19-13286819-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr19-13286819-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 128552.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr19-13286819-G-A is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.04 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.00576 (877/152224) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.0199 (828/41526). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0188. There are 5 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 395 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd at 876 AD gene.
