Genes affected
CLCN1 (HGNC:2019): (chloride voltage-gated channel 1) The CLCN family of voltage-dependent chloride channel genes comprises nine members (CLCN1-7, Ka and Kb) which demonstrate quite diverse functional characteristics while sharing significant sequence homology. The protein encoded by this gene regulates the electric excitability of the skeletal muscle membrane. Mutations in this gene cause two forms of inherited human muscle disorders: recessive generalized myotonia congenita (Becker) and dominant myotonia (Thomsen). Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMay 03, 2021Observed in the heterozygous state, without a second pathogenic variant, in multiple individuals with Thomson disease (domiant form), although some individuals were reported to have clinical features consistent with the more severe Becker disease (recessive form) (Meyer-Kleine et al., 1995; Jou et al., 2004; Lo Monaco et al., 2004); Observed in the heterozygous state in a patient with myotonia congenita and was found to be inherited from an unaffected father (Jou et al., 2004); Observed in patients with myotonia congenita who harbored a second CLCN1 variant in the literature and referred for genetic testing at GeneDx (Lo Monaco et al., 2015); Published functional studies with electrophysiological analysis of Xenopus oocytes demonstrate G482R results in loss of CLCN1 channel function (Lin et al., 2006); Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 23739125, 17097617, 10644771, 15311340, 24349310, 25065301, 28427807, 15786415, 12210360, 8533761, 31567646, 31544778, 22346025) -

Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Genetics, Royal Melbourne HospitalNov 05, 2023This sequence change in CLCN1 is predicted to replace glycine with arginine at codon 482, p.(Gly482Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is a critical glycine residue in the helical transmembrane M-N Linker domain of the chloride ion channel (PMID: 24349310). There is a large physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine. The highest population minor allele frequency in the population database gnomAD v2.1 is 0.01% (2/16,256 alleles) in the African/African American population, which is consistent with a recessive disease. This variant has been detected in at least three individuals with autosomal recessive/Becker myotonia congenita (MC). Of those individuals, one individual was homozygous and two were compound heterozygous for the variant and a pathogenic variant, confirmed in trans (PMID: 22346025, 37066920; LOVD). The variant is reported to segregate with disease in the homozygous state in a single family (PMID: 22346025). There are limited reports of the variant in autosomal dominant/Thomsen MC (PMID: 15311340, 31567646). In vitro patch-clamp assays with limited validation in HEK293 cells and Xenopus oocytes demonstrate the variant leads to a loss of chloride channel function (PMID: 10644771, 17097617, 18035046). Computational evidence [predicts a deleterious effect/ predicts a benign effect/ is uninformative] for the missense substitution (REVEL = 0.997). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as PATHOGENIC. Following criteria are met: PM3_Strong, PM1, PP3_Moderate, PM2_Supporting, PS3_Supporting, PP1. -

Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form;C2936781:Congenital myotonia, autosomal dominant form Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 31, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 482 of the CLCN1 protein (p.Gly482Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs746125212, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive myotonia congenita (PMID: 22346025, 25065301; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant myotonia congenita (PMID: 8533761, 15311340, 15786415, 31567646); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 546108). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt CLCN1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CLCN1 function (PMID: 10644771, 17097617, 18035046). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
