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]

Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form;C2936781:Congenital myotonia, autosomal dominant form Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeSep 19, 2023This variant is present in population databases (rs756981034, gnomAD 0.02%). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CLCN1 function (PMID: 22094069). 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 447047). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive myotonia congenita (PMID: 22094069, 23113340, 23739125). This variant has been reported in individual(s) with autosomal dominant myotonia congenita (PMID: 23113340); however, the role of the variant in this condition is currently unclear. This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 421 of the CLCN1 protein (p.Arg421Cys). -
Congenital myotonia, autosomal recessive form Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpAug 03, 2023Variant summary: CLCN1 c.1261C>T (p.Arg421Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of four in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251462 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.1261C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple compound heterozygous individuals affected with Myotonia congenital (Mazon_2012, Brugnoni_2013, Suetterlin_2022). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one in vitro study reports this variant results in a reduction of the wild-type activity (Mazon_2012). The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23739125, 22094069, 34529042). Three submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as pathogenic (n=2) and likely pathogenic (n=1). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
