Genes affected
SCN5A (HGNC:10593): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5) The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel subunit. This protein is found primarily in cardiac muscle and is responsible for the initial upstroke of the action potential in an electrocardiogram. Defects in this gene have been associated with long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3), atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and Brugada syndrome 1, all autosomal dominant cardiac diseases. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Submissions by phenotype

not provided Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeMay 20, 2019In 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: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C65"). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with SCN5A-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces methionine with threonine at codon 438 of the SCN5A protein (p.Met438Thr). The methionine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between methionine and threonine. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 21, 2019The p.M438T variant (also known as c.1313T>C), located in coding exon 9 of the SCN5A gene, results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 1313. The methionine at codon 438 is replaced by threonine, an amino acid with similar properties, and is located in the DI/DII interdomain linker region. Another variant affecting this codon (p.M438L, c.1312A>T) has been reported in a Brugada syndrome cohort; however clinical details were limited (Robyns T et al. Ann Noninvasive Electrocardiol, 2018 09;23:e12548). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
