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 testingGeneDxOct 17, 2018The c.2831dupC likely pathogenic variant in the CLCN1 gene has been reported previously as c.2828insC due to alternative nomenclature, in an individual with severe myotonia, tongue myotonia, and lid myotonia, who also harbored a second CLCN1 pathogenic variant, suggestive of autosomal recessive inheritance (Dupree et al., 2009). The duplication causes a frameshift starting with codon Glycine 945, changes this amino acid to an Arginine residue and creates a premature Stop codon at position 39 of the new reading frame, denoted p.Gly945ArgfsX39. This likely pathogenic variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation as the last 44 amino acid residues are replaced with 38 incorrect amino acid residues. The c.2831dupC variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). Therefore, this variant is likely pathogenic; however, the possibility that it is benign cannot be excluded. -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAthena DiagnosticsJun 09, 2022The frequency of this variant in the general population is consistent with pathogenicity (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). This variant is expected to result in a shift of the reading frame and a premature stop codon. Since this variant is located in the last exon of the gene, variant-containing transcripts likely escape nonsense-mediated decay. This variant has been reported in multiple families with autosomal recessive myotonia congenita in published literature and internal data (PMID: 18337100, Athena Diagnostics internal data). This variant is also referred to as 2828insC in published literature. -

Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form;C2936781:Congenital myotonia, autosomal dominant form Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 14, 2023This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Gly945Argfs*39) in the CLCN1 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 44 amino acid(s) of the CLCN1 protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs755176513, gnomAD 0.004%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with autosomal recessive myotonia congenita (PMID: 18337100; Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. This variant is also known as c.2828insC. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280103). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
