Genes affected
CACNA2D4 (HGNC:20202): (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 4) This gene encodes a member of the alpha-2/delta subunit family, a protein in the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization and consist of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. Various versions of each of these subunits exist, either expressed from similar genes or the result of alternative splicing. Research on a highly similar protein in rabbit suggests the protein described in this record is cleaved into alpha-2 and delta subunits. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineOct 17, 2014The p.Arg628X variant in CACNA2D4 has not been previously reported in individuals with disease but has been identified in 0.06% (5/8296) of European American chromosomes and 0.03% (1/3876) of African American chromosomes by the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS/; dbSNP rs200098356). This nonsense variant leads to a premature termination codon at position 628 which is predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Complete loss of CACNA2D4 function has been reported in 2 siblings with autosomal recessive retinal cone dystrophy and a mouse model with complete loss of Cacna2d4 function displayed code-rod dysfunction (Wycisk 2006). In summary while the case report and mouse model indicate loss of CACNA2D4 function may be associated with retinal cone dystrophy, more data is needed to establish the role of CACNA2D4 in disease and therefore the clinical significance of the p.Arg628X variant is uncertain. -
