Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -4 ACMG points: 1P and 5B. PP2BP4BS2

The NM_014191.4(SCN8A):c.3164G>A(p.Arg1055Gln) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000335 in 1,613,090 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R1055W) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
SCN8A (HGNC:10596): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 8) This gene encodes a member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. The encoded protein forms the ion pore region of the voltage-gated sodium channel. This protein is essential for the rapid membrane depolarization that occurs during the formation of the action potential in excitable neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with cognitive disability, pancerebellar atrophy and ataxia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 22, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1055 of the SCN8A protein (p.Arg1055Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs756127631, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN8A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436670). 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 not expected to disrupt SCN8A protein function. 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. -
