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]

Hereditary hyperekplexia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 18, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 442 of the GLRA1 protein (p.Arg442His). This variant is present in population databases (rs200130685, gnomAD 0.06%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with hyperplexia (PMID: 24108130). This variant is also known as Arg414His. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 532834). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on GLRA1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect GLRA1 function (PMID: 24108130). 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. -
