Genes affected
SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.55).
BP6
Variant 17-63945022-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-63945022-G-A is described in ClinVar as Benign. ClinVar VariationId is 130235.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
BP7
Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-3.28 with no splicing effect.
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population nfe. GnomAd4 allele frequency = 0.019 (2890/152252) while in subpopulation NFE AF = 0.028 (1905/68008). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.027. There are 42 homozygotes in GnomAd4. There are 1416 alleles in the male GnomAd4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 32. This position passed quality control check.
BS2
High Homozygotes in GnomAd4 at 42 AR,AD gene
