Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM2PP2PP3_Strong

The NM_001099404.2(SCN5A):c.1981C>T(p.Arg661Trp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000682 in 1,613,722 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 (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R661Q) 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]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpOct 02, 2023Variant summary: SCN5A c.1981C>T (p.Arg661Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the cytoplasmic domain (IPR024583) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 248804 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1981C>T has been reported in the literature in at least two individuals with Brugada syndrome (e.g., Kapplinger_2010, Chen_2022), however without strong evidence for causality (e.g., lack of co-segregation data). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Brugada 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: 36303204, 30203441, 25904541, 20129283, 23414114). One submitter has reported clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and has classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 20, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 661 of the SCN5A protein (p.Arg661Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473139, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Brugada syndrome (PMID: 20129283, 36303204). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67703). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
