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]
CACNA1C-AS1 (HGNC:40119): (CACNA1C antisense RNA 1)

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJan 07, 2016The A1891P variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. Although this variant was not observed in approximately 6,100 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations, the 1000 Genomes Project reports A1891P was observed in approximately 0.1% of alleles from individuals of African background. The A1891P variant is a semi-conservative amino acid substitution, which may impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in some properties. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved across species and in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. Furthermore, no pathogenic missense variants in nearby residues have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (Stenson et al., 2014), indicating this region of the gene is not known to harbor pathogenic variants. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is pathogenic or rare benign. -
Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 20, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1891 of the CACNA1C protein (p.Ala1891Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs542914369, gnomAD 0.03%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNA1C-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 279723). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt CACNA1C protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 10, 2022The p.A1891P variant (also known as c.5671G>C), located in coding exon 44 of the CACNA1C gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 5671. The alanine at codon 1891 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with highly similar properties. According to data from gnomAD, the frequency for this variant is above the maximum credible frequency for a cardiac disease-causing variant in this gene based on internally established thresholds (Karczewski et al. Nature. 2020 May;581(7809):434-443; Whiffin et al. Genet Med. 2017 10;19:1151-1158). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, the association of this alteration with CACNA1C-related neurodevelopmental disorder is unknown; however, the association with CACNA1C-related Timothy syndrome or long QT syndrome is unlikely. -
