Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM1PP3_Moderate

The NM_000171.4(GLRA1):c.536C>T(p.Thr179Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000434 in 1,611,416 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. T179K) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 07, 2022In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 464190). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with GLRA1-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs372452903, gnomAD 0.002%). This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 179 of the GLRA1 protein (p.Thr179Ile). -
