Genes affected
SCN9A (HGNC:10597): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9) This gene encodes a voltage-gated sodium channel which plays a significant role in nociception signaling. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary erythermalgia, channelopathy-associated insensitivity to pain, and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 12, 2018A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the SCN9A gene. The R1620L variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The R1620L variant is observed in 4/66,740 alleles from individuals of European background (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). The R1620L variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. This substitution occurs at a conserved position predicted to be within the transmembrance segment S4 voltage sensor of the fourth homologous domain. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 13, 2019The p.R1620L variant (also known as c.4859G>T), located in coding exon 26 of the SCN9A gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 4859. The arginine at codon 1620 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is unlikely to be causative of primary erythermalgia/small fiber neuropathy, and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder (PEPD); however, its contribution to the development of congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) and hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy type II (HSAN2D) is uncertain. -
Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 7;C2752089:Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, type 2A Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 03, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1620 of the SCN9A protein (p.Arg1620Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs201079869, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with small fiber neuropathy (PMID: 30554136). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 426795). 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 SCN9A protein function. 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. -
