Genes affected

CACNA1A (HGNC:1388): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 A) Voltage-dependent calcium channels mediate the entry of calcium ions into excitable cells, and are also involved in a variety of calcium-dependent processes, including muscle contraction, hormone or neurotransmitter release, and gene expression. Calcium channels are multisubunit complexes composed of alpha-1, beta, alpha-2/delta, and gamma subunits. The channel activity is directed by the pore-forming alpha-1 subunit, whereas, the others act as auxiliary subunits regulating this activity. The distinctive properties of the calcium channel types are related primarily to the expression of a variety of alpha-1 isoforms, alpha-1A, B, C, D, E, and S. This gene encodes the alpha-1A subunit, which is predominantly expressed in neuronal tissue. Mutations in this gene are associated with 2 neurologic disorders, familial hemiplegic migraine and episodic ataxia 2. This gene also exhibits polymorphic variation due to (CAG)n-repeats. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. In one set of transcript variants, the (CAG)n-repeats occur in the 3' UTR, and are not associated with any disease. But in another set of variants, an insertion extends the coding region to include the (CAG)n-repeats which encode a polyglutamine tract. Expansion of the (CAG)n-repeats from the normal 4-18 to 21-33 in the coding region is associated with spinocerebellar ataxia 6. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

Uncertain:3

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	GeneDx	May 14, 2018	A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the CACNA1A gene. The c.3618_3620delGGA variant has not been published as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. The c.3618_3620delGGA variant is observed in 4/24,000 (0.02%) alleles from individuals of African background (Lek et al., 2016). The c.3618_3620delGGA variant results in an in-frame deletion of a single Glutamic acid residue, denoted p.Glu1207del. However, this deletion occurs at a position that is not conserved. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -

This variant, c.3618_3620del, results in the deletion of 1 amino acid(s) of the CACNA1A protein (p.Glu1207del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs750826355, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CACNA1A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 195574). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

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. -
