Genes affected
CHRNA4 (HGNC:1958): (cholinergic receptor nicotinic alpha 4 subunit) This gene encodes a nicotinic acetylcholine receptor, which belongs to a superfamily of ligand-gated ion channels that play a role in fast signal transmission at synapses. These pentameric receptors can bind acetylcholine, which causes an extensive change in conformation that leads to the opening of an ion-conducting channel across the plasma membrane. This protein is an integral membrane receptor subunit that can interact with either nAChR beta-2 or nAChR beta-4 to form a functional receptor. Mutations in this gene cause nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy type 1. Polymorphisms in this gene that provide protection against nicotine addiction have been described. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 30, 2023This variant is present in population databases (rs762764855, gnomAD 0.006%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with CHRNA4-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 411849). 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 CHRNA4 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. This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 165 of the CHRNA4 protein (p.Val165Ile). -
