Genes affected

GABRA1 (HGNC:4075): (gamma-aminobutyric acid type A receptor subunit alpha1) This gene encodes a gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptor. GABA is the major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain where it acts at GABA-A receptors, which are ligand-gated chloride channels. Chloride conductance of these channels can be modulated by agents such as benzodiazepines that bind to the GABA-A receptor. GABA-A receptors are pentameric, consisting of proteins from several subunit classes: alpha, beta, gamma, delta and rho. Mutations in this gene cause juvenile myoclonic epilepsy and childhood absence epilepsy type 4. Multiple transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.86).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population afr. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.000112 (17/151940) while in subpopulation AFR AF= 0.000411 (17/41350). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000261. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 7 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 33. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAd4 at 17 AD gene.
