Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 5 ACMG points: 5P and 0B. PM2PP2PP3_Moderate
The NM_000335.5(SCN5A):c.871A>C(p.Asn291His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000026 in 1,613,728 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N291S) has been classified as Likely benign.

Submissions by phenotype
not provided Uncertain:2
This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 291 of the SCN5A protein (p.Asn291His). This variant is present in population databases (rs36210420, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with SCN5A-related conditions (PMID: 17161064, 30079003, 34930020). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 68051). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect SCN5A function (PMID: 34930020). 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. -
A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the SCN5A gene. The N291H variant has previously been reported as a polymorphism" in an individual of European ancestry with torsades de pointes (Mank-Seymour et al., 2006). In addition, this variant has been observed in other unrelated individuals referred for cardiac genetic testing at GeneDx; however, segregation data is insufficient to determine the pathogenicity of this variant. In silico analysis is inconsistent in its predictions as to whether or not the variant is damaging to the protein structure/function. Nevertheless, the N291H variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved in mammals. Furthermore, the N291H variant was not observed in approximately 6,400 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations.Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is pathogenic or benign." -
Cardiac arrhythmia Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces asparagine with histidine at codon 291 of the SCN5A protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that this variant has no significant impact on channel peak current density (PMID: 34930020). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with torsades de pointes (PMID: 17161064) and in another individual noted with atrial fibrillation, long QT syndrome, and syncope from a population screening study (PMID: 34930020). This variant has been identified in 3/280536 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The c.871A>C (p.N291H) alteration is located in exon 7 (coding exon 6) of the SCN5A gene. This alteration results from a A to C substitution at nucleotide position 871, causing the asparagine (N) at amino acid position 291 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Torsades de pointes Other:1
This variant has been reported as associated with torsades de pointes in the following publications (PMID:17161064). This is a literature report, and does not necessarily reflect the clinical interpretation of the Imperial College / Royal Brompton Cardiovascular Genetics laboratory. -
