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]

The SCN5A c.2944T>C, p.Cys982Arg variant (rs199473182), has been reported in multiple individuals selected for cardiac arrhythmia (Hofman-Bang 2006), sudden cardiac death (Cann 2017), or actionable variants in genomic medicine studies (Amendola 2015 and Dorschner 2013). This variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database (Variation ID: 67769). It is found in the African population with an allele frequency of 0.08% (18/23,286 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The cysteine at codon 982 is highly conserved, but computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is tolerated. Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Cys982Arg variant is uncertain at this time. References: Amendola et al.

Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Benign. The p.Cys982Arg variant in SCN5A has been previously reported in 1 individual with sudden death (Hofman-Bang, 2006) and in 0.077% of African chromosomes in gnomAD (dbSNP rs199473182). This variant is located in a domain that is believed to be enriched in variants that are present in controls although this does not rule out a pathogenic role (Kapa 2009). Uncertain significance in ClinVar. In summary, the clinical significance of the p.Cys982Arg variant is uncertain. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: SCN5A c.2944T>C (p.Cys982Arg) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Sodium ion transport-associated domain of the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 7.7 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SCN5A causing Arrhythmia phenotype (0.0001), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. c.2944T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with DCM, Sudden Adult Death Syndrome and other familial or idiopathic cardiomyopathy, without strong evidence for causality (Verdonschot_2020, Hofman-Bang_2006, Ware_2021). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. Co-occurrences with other pathogenic variant(s) have been reported (TTR c.424G>A, p.Val142Ile, internal data), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. 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: 32880476, 16712702, 33906374). Nine submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Multiple submitters reported the variant with conflicting assessments including four likely benign/benign and five VUS. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases did not allow this variant to be ruled in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Significance: Likely benign

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as likely benign. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Loss of function and gain of function are both known mechanisms of disease in this gene. Loss of function is usually associated with Brugada syndrome 1 (MIM#601144) and sick sinus syndrome (SSS) (MIM#608567), whereas gain of function is usually associated with LQTS (MIM#603830). DCM (MIM#601154) can be caused by variants with either a loss- or gain of function mechanism (PMID: 29798782). However, some variants simultaneously result in both a loss- and gain of function effect, and have been observed in patients with LQTS, Brugada syndrome or SSS, and patients with a blended phenotype. Additionally, different studies have shown conflicting mechanisms in association with atrial fibrillation (MIM#614022) (PMID: 29806494, PMID: 19167345, PMID: 26798387). (I) 0108 - This gene is associated with both recessive and dominant disease. Most conditions associated with this gene are dominantly inherited, however SSS can be caused by recessive variants (OMIM). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from cysteine to arginine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v3) <0.001 for a dominant condition (48 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0504 - Same amino acid change has been observed in placental mammals. (SB) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated sodium ion transport-associated domain (NCBI). (I) 0710 - Another missense variant comparable to the one identified in this case has inconclusive previous evidence for pathogenicity. This alternative missense variant (p.Cys982Tyr) has been reported as a VUS (ClinVar). (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant has been observed in multiple individuals with cardiac phenotypes including sudden death syndrome, bundle branch block, long QT syndrome (LQTS), coronary heart disease and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (PMID: 16712702, PMID: 26746457, PMID: 20102864). However, this variant has been reported as either a VUS, likely benign or benign (LOVD, ClinVar, Verdonschot, JAJ. (2021), PMID: 24055113). Additionally, this variant has been observed in control cohorts, and has been described as non-pathogenic and as a polymorphism (PMID: 25904541, PMID: 27000522). (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

The SCN5A c.2944T>C variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Cys982Arg. This variant was reported in individuals with sudden cardiac death (Hofman-Bang et al. 2006. PubMed ID: 16712702; Adabag et al. 2010. PubMed ID: 20102864), dilated cardiomyopathy (Table S4, Verdonschot et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32880476), or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (Table S1, Lopes et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 25351510). This variant was also detected in three unaffected family members of a sudden cardiac death proband, and this variant was considered non-pathogenic in a more recent study (Cann et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 27000522). This variant is reported in 0.077% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/3-38622706-A-G) and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from benign to uncertain (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/67769). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
