Genes affected
GLRA1 (HGNC:4326): (glycine receptor alpha 1) The protein encoded by this gene is a subunit of a pentameric inhibitory glycine receptor, which mediates postsynaptic inhibition in the central nervous system. Defects in this gene are a cause of startle disease (STHE), also known as hereditary hyperekplexia or congenital stiff-person syndrome. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]

Hereditary hyperekplexia Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 17, 2022In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg100 amino acid residue in GLRA1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with GLRA1-related conditions (PMID: 16078201, 24108130), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GLRA1 function (PMID: 25568133). 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 expected to disrupt GLRA1 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 38328). This variant is also known as p.R72H. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive hyperekplexia (PMID: 16078201). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is present in population databases (rs281864914, gnomAD 0.007%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 100 of the GLRA1 protein (p.Arg100His). -
