Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3

The NM_001099404.2(SCN5A):c.1018C>T(p.Arg340Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000118 in 1,613,464 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (โ˜…โ˜…). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R340Q) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected
SCN5A (HGNC:10593): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5) The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel subunit. This protein is found primarily in cardiac muscle and is responsible for the initial upstroke of the action potential in an electrocardiogram. Defects in this gene have been associated with long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3), atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and Brugada syndrome 1, all autosomal dominant cardiac diseases. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeFeb 22, 2023The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. 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. An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variantยฌโ€  is likely to be tolerated. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67625). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Romano-Ward syndrome (PMID: 19862833). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 340 of the SCN5A protein (p.Arg340Trp). -

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJan 16, 2024Variant summary: SCN5A c.1018C>T (p.Arg340Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 248454 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1018C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Long QT Syndrome without strong evidence of causality (e.g. Kapplinger_2009, Hedley_2009, Goldenberg_2011, Wilde_2016). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Long QT Syndrome. 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: 19716085, 27566755, 19862833, 21185501). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67625). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMay 04, 2022The c.1018C>T (p.R340W) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 8) of the SCN5A gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1018, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 340 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
