Genes affected
CHRNA4 (HGNC:1958): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 subunit) This gene encodes a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which belongs to a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that play a role in fast signal transmission at synapses. These pentameric receptors can bind acetylcholine, which causes an extensive change in conformation that leads to the opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. This protein is an integral membrane receptor subunit that can interact with either nAChR beta-2 or nAChR beta-4 to form a functional receptor. Mutations in this gene cause nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy type 1. Polymorphisms in this gene that provide protection against nicotine addiction have been described. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 26, 2017The A477V variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The A477V variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The A477V variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. This amino acid substitution is not predicted to occur within the transmembrane region of the protein, where the vast majority of pathogenic missense variants have been identified in association with epilepsy (Steinlein et al., 2010). In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
