Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points: 3P and 5B. PM1PP2BP4BS2

The NM_001330260.2(SCN8A):​c.3272A>C​(p.Asn1091Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000186 in 1,613,768 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign 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. N1091S) has been classified as Likely benign.

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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -2 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 15 uncertain in NM_001330260.2
PP2
Missense variant in the SCN8A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 213 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 45 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.78755 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 10.436 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to myoclonus, familial, 2, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 13, undetermined early-onset epileptic encephalopathy, benign familial infantile epilepsy, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, seizures, benign familial infantile, 5, cognitive impairment with or without cerebellar ataxia, infantile convulsions and choreoathetosis.
BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.35739303).
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 5 AD gene.
