Genes affected
GLRA1 (HGNC:4326): (glycine receptor alpha 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of a pentameric inhibitory glycine receptor, which mediates postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. Defects in this gene are a cause of startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 93 of the GLRA1 protein (p.Arg93Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs199547699, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive hyperekplexia (PMID: 20631190, 24108130, 36434917). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is also known as R65W. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 225379). 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 expected to disrupt GLRA1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLRA1 function (PMID: 20631190, 24108130). This variant disrupts the p.Arg93 amino acid residue in GLRA1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with GLRA1-related conditions (PMID: 20631190), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
