Genes affected
CACNA1H (HGNC:1395): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 H) This gene encodes a T-type member of the alpha-1 subunit family, a protein in the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization and consist of a complex of alpha-1, alpha-2/delta, beta, and gamma subunits in a 1:1:1:1 ratio. The alpha-1 subunit has 24 transmembrane segments and forms the pore through which ions pass into the cell. There are multiple isoforms of each of the proteins in the complex, either encoded by different genes or the result of alternative splicing of transcripts. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized for the gene described here. Studies suggest certain mutations in this gene lead to childhood absence epilepsy (CAE). [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -13 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.91).
BP6
Variant 16-1210783-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr16-1210783-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 460106.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.00293 (446/152358) while in subpopulation SAS AF = 0.00435 (21/4832). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00312. There are 3 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 203 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 35. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 446 AD gene.
