Genes affected
SCN8A (HGNC:10596): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 8) This gene encodes a member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. The encoded protein forms the ion pore region of the voltage-gated sodium channel. This protein is essential for the rapid membrane depolarization that occurs during the formation of the action potential in excitable neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with cognitive disability, pancerebellar atrophy and ataxia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

SCN8A-related disorder Uncertain:1
May 30, 2024
PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The SCN8A c.3710A>G variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Lys1237Arg. To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.0023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the SCN8A gene. The K1237R variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The K1237R variant is not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). This substitution alters a position conserved in mammals that is predicted to be within the transmembrane segment S2 of the third homologous domain. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, the K1237R variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -
