Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_001134407.3(GRIN2A):​c.2453C>T​(p.Ala818Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A818T) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected
GRIN2A (HGNC:4585): (glutamate ionotropic receptor NMDA type subunit 2A) This gene encodes a member of the glutamate-gated ion channel protein family. The encoded protein is an N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor subunit. NMDA receptors are both ligand-gated and voltage-dependent, and are involved in long-term potentiation, an activity-dependent increase in the efficiency of synaptic transmission thought to underlie certain kinds of memory and learning. These receptors are permeable to calcium ions, and activation results in a calcium influx into post-synaptic cells, which results in the activation of several signaling cascades. Disruption of this gene is associated with focal epilepsy and speech disorder with or without cognitive disability. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 5 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_001134407.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr16-9768994-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 522855.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.783
PP5
Variant 16-9768993-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr16-9768993-G-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1065504.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
