Genes affected

CACNA2D1 (HGNC:1399): (calcium voltage-gated channel auxiliary subunit alpha2delta 1) The preproprotein encoded by this gene is cleaved into multiple chains that comprise the alpha-2 and delta subunits of the voltage-dependent calcium channel complex. Calcium channels mediate the influx of calcium ions into the cell upon membrane polarization. Mutations in this gene can cause cardiac deficiencies, including Brugada syndrome and short QT syndrome. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants, some of which may lack the delta subunit portion. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2014]

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 956 of the CACNA2D1 protein (p.Ser956Tyr). This variant is present in population databases (rs768081623, gnomAD 0.003%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of CACNA2D1-related conditions (PMID: 20817017). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 519525). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant  is likely to be tolerated. Studies have shown that this missense change does not significantly alter or has an unclear effect on CACNA2D1 gene expression (PMID: 25527503). 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. -

The p.S956Y variant (also known as c.2867C>A), located in coding exon 36 of the CACNA2D1 gene, results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 2867. The serine at codon 956 is replaced by tyrosine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration, described as c.2867C>A but p.S956T, was reported in an individual with early repolarization syndrome (Burashnikov E et al. Heart Rhythm, 2010 Dec;7:1872-82). Later in vitro studies suggested that this alteration did not affect protein expression or Cav1.2 channel function in the tested experimental system (Bourdin B et al. J. Biol. Chem., 2015 Jan;290:2854-69). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
