Genes affected
SCN5A (HGNC:10593): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5) The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and tetrodotoxin-resistant voltage-gated sodium channel subunit. This protein is found primarily in cardiac muscle and is responsible for the initial upstroke of the action potential in an electrocardiogram. Defects in this gene have been associated with long QT syndrome type 3 (LQT3), atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, and Brugada syndrome 1, all autosomal dominant cardiac diseases. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 11, 2024This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1958*) in the SCN5A gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 59 amino acid(s) of the SCN5A protein. This variant is present in population databases (rs757532106, gnomAD 0.02%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of long QT syndrome, dilated cardiomyopathy or unexplained cardiac arrest (PMID: 15840476, 19862833, 24388587, 27532257, 28600387). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 201546). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of variants on protein structure and function are not available or were not evaluated for this variant. Experimental studies have shown that this premature translational stop signal does not substantially affect SCN5A function (PMID: 32533946). 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 02, 2023The p.R1958* variant (also known as c.5872C>T), located in coding exon 27 of the SCN5A gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5872. This changes the amino acid from an arginine to a stop codon within coding exon 27. This alteration has been reported in a long QT syndrome cohort, a dilated cardiomyopathy cohort, a Turner syndrome cohort, a hearing loss cohort, and a cardiac arrest survivor cohort (Hedley PL et al. Hum. Mutat. 2009;30:1486-511; Trolle C et al. PLoS ONE. 2013;8:e69614; Chang RK et al. J. Pediatr. 2014;164:590-5.e1-3; Mellor G et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet. 2017;10:e001686; Walsh R et al. Genet. Med. 2017;19:192-203). This alteration has also been reported in biobank cohorts (Zouk et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2019 Sep;105:588-605; Van Hout CV et al. Nature, 2020 Oct;586:749-756). Premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature, however, this stop codon occurs at the 3' terminus of SCN5A, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and removes only the last 59 amino acids of the protein. The exact functional impact of these removed amino acids is unknown at this time. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Cardiac arrhythmia Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthDec 16, 2022This c.5872C>T (p.Arg1958*) variant changes 1 nucleotide in exon 28 of the SCN5A gene, creating a premature translation stop signal. This variant is also described as c.5869C>T (p.Arg1957*) based on a different transcript NM_000335.5. This variant occurs in the last exon and is expected to result in a truncated protein product missing the last 59 amino acids of the protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. However, a different truncation variant p.Arg1944* missing the last 73 amino acids of the protein has shown negligible effects on protein expression and function in an experimental study (PMID: 28370132) (ClinVar variation ID: 201596). This c.5872C>T (p.Arg1958*) variant has been reported in an individual affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 19862833), in two individuals having borderline long QTc intervals (PMID: 23936059, 24388587), in two individuals with dilated cardiomyopathy (PMID: 27532257, 29961767) and in an individual with unexplained cardiac arrest (PMID: 28600387). This variant has also been identified in 13/276598 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
