Genes affected
CACNA1H (HGNC:1395): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 H) This gene encodes a T-type member of the alpha-1 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. The alpha-1 subunit has 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. There are multiple isoforms of each of the proteins in the complex, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized for the gene described here. Studies suggest certain mutations in this gene lead to childhood absence epilepsy (CAE). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.57).
BP6
Variant 16-1212116-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-1212116-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_benign]. Clinvar id is 585647.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.406 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population mid. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.000149 (217/1456430) while in subpopulation MID AF= 0.000972 (5/5146). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000701. There are 1 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 125 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 35. This position pass quality control queck.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd at 17 AD gene.
