Genes affected
SCN2A (HGNC:10588): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 2) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with four repeat domains, each of which is composed of six membrane-spanning segments, and one or more regulatory beta subunits. Voltage-gated sodium channels function in the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. Allelic variants of this gene are associated with seizure disorders and autism spectrum disorder. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2016]

Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 18, 2019This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30564305, 27262167, 22029951, 11738931) -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsApr 24, 2023Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant has been identified in at least one individual with clinical features associated with this gene. Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 28087622) Computational tools disagree on the variant's effect on normal protein function. -

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 08, 2016The p.R1918H variant (also known as c.5753G>A), located in coding exon 26 of the SCN2A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5753. The arginine at codon 1918 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in one individual with febrile and tonic-clonic seizures; however, it was absent in the individual's niece who had pyknoleptic daily clusters of absence seizures. Of note, the alteration was not detected in three additional unaffected family members or in 92 controls (Haug K et al. Epilepsy Res., 2001 Dec;47:243-6). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingCenter for Genomics, Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of ChicagoMar 30, 2021SCN2A NM_001040142.1 exon 27 p.Arg1918His (c.5753G>A): This variant has been reported in the literature in 1 individual with idiopathic generalized epilepsy, but did not segregate with disease in 1 affected family member (Haug 2001 PMID:11738931). This variant is present in 19/125972 European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs201718767). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
Seizures, benign familial infantile, 3;C3150987:Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 11 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpDec 10, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1918 of the SCN2A protein (p.Arg1918His). This variant is present in population databases (rs201718767, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with childhood absence epilepsy and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy and/or epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures (PMID: 11738931, 33000761, 35715422). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 590198). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SCN2A protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN2A function (PMID: 28087622). 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. -
