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]

Variant summary: CACNA1C c.372-9C>G alters a non-conserved nucleotide located close to a canonical splice site and therefore could affect mRNA splicing, leading to a significantly altered protein sequence. 3/4 computational tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. However, these predictions have yet to be confirmed by functional studies. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 9.2e-05 in 249224 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0012 within the East Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within East Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 120-fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CACNA1C causing Timothy Syndrome phenotype (1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of East Asian origin. c.372-9C>G has been reported in the literature in at least one individual affected with atrioventricular block (e.g. Liu_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Timothy Syndrome. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. One clinical diagnostic laboratory has submitted a clinical significance assessment for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation and cited the variant as likely benign. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -
