Genes affected
CACNB2 (HGNC:1402): (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit beta 2) This gene encodes a subunit of a voltage-dependent calcium channel protein that is a member of the voltage-gated calcium channel superfamily. The gene product was originally identified as an antigen target in Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome, an autoimmune disorder. Mutations in this gene are associated with Brugada syndrome. Alternatively spliced variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2013]

Brugada syndrome 4 Uncertain:2
Nov 18, 2019
Centre for Mendelian Genomics, University Medical Centre Ljubljana
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was classified as: Uncertain significance. The available evidence on this variant's pathogenicity is insufficient or conflicting. The following ACMG criteria were applied in classifying this variant: PP3,BP1. -

Aug 16, 2022
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 269 of the CACNB2 protein (p.Ala269Thr). This variant is present in population databases (rs561197163, gnomAD 0.06%), and has an allele count higher than expected for a pathogenic variant. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNB2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 537373). 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: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -

not specified Benign:1
Sep 08, 2020
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp
Significance: Benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: CACNB2 c.805G>A (p.Ala269Thr) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0001 in 251284 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 1 homozygote. The observed variant frequency is approximately 33-fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in CACNB2 causing Brugada Syndrome phenotype (3.1e-06), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.805G>A in individuals affected with Brugada Syndrome and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Two other clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. Both laboratories classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Mar 14, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
