Genes affected
CLCN2 (HGNC:2020): (chloride voltage-gated channel 2) This gene encodes a voltage-gated chloride channel. The encoded protein is a transmembrane protein that maintains chloride ion homeostasis in various cells. Defects in this gene may be a cause of certain epilepsies. Four transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

This sequence change falls in intron 16 of the CLCN2 gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the CLCN2 protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs371193424, gnomAD 0.1%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with epilepsy (PMID: 15505175, 36435927). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 217773). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
