Genes affected

CACNA1C (HGNC:1390): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 C) This gene encodes an alpha-1 subunit of a voltage-dependent calcium channel. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. The alpha-1 subunit consists of 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. The calcium channel consists of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. There are multiple isoforms of each of these proteins, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. The protein encoded by this gene binds to and is inhibited by dihydropyridine. Alternative splicing results in many transcript variants encoding different proteins. Some of the predicted proteins may not produce functional ion channel subunits. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:2 Benign:1

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	Apr 07, 2017	A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the CACNA1C gene. The I304T variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. This variant has previously been observed independently or in conjunction with additional cardiogenetic variants in multiple other unrelated individuals referred for arrhythmia genetic testing at GeneDx. However, segregation data is uninformative. In addition, this variant has been classified in ClinVar as a variant of uncertain significance by other clinical laboratories (ClinVar SCV000231571.1, SCV000259358.1, SCV000318927.1, SCV000280059.1; Landrum et al., 2016). The NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project and the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC) report the I304T variant was observed in 10/8,588 alleles from individuals of European background and 58/66,110 alleles from individual of Non-Finnish European background, respectively. This substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved across species, and Threonine is the wild-type amino acid at this position in at least one species. Furthermore, in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. Nevertheless, the I304T variant results in 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.Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is pathogenic or benign. -
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria provided	clinical testing	Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford University	-	Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. Given the lack of case data and the rare occurrence in individuals not selected for Mendelian phenotypes, we consider this a variant of uncertain significance. The variant is novel. In silico analysis with PolyPhen-2 predicts the variant to be benign and SIFT predicts it to be tolerated. The isoleucine at codon 304 is not conserved across species. The variant was reported online in 30 of 60,304 individuals (including 29 of 36,923 European individuals, 1 of 4949 African-American individuals, and 1 of 5780 Latino Individuals) in the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/) (as of December 1st, 2014). The phenotype of those individuals is not publicly available. The dataset is comprised of multiple cohorts, some of which were recruited from the general population, others were enriched for common cardiovascular disease. Note that other variants with strong evidence for pathogenicity have been seen at similar frequencies in this dataset so this does not necessarily rule out pathogenicity (Pan et al 2012). -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Sep 16, 2024	Variant summary: CACNA1C c.911T>C (p.Ile304Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Ion transport domain (IPR005821) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0005 in 248032 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 49.99 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CACNA1C causing Arrhythmia phenotype (1e-05). c.911T>C has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Long QT syndrome, arrythmia, and Brugada syndrome (Wemhoner_2015, VanLint_2019, Bora_2023, Novelli_2022). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 37901857, 34999275, 30847666, 25633834). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 190631). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

CACNA1C NM_000719.6 exon 6 p.Ile304Thr (c.911T>C): This variant has not been reported in the literature but is present in 0.1% (11/10290) of Ashkenazi Jewish alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/12-2595423-T-C). This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:190631). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may not impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
