Genes affected

SCN9A (HGNC:10597): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 9) This gene encodes a voltage-gated sodium channel which plays a significant role in nociception signaling. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary erythermalgia, channelopathy-associated insensitivity to pain, and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]

The c.4228-3T>C intronic variant results from a T to C substitution 3 nucleotides upstream from coding exon 23 in the SCN9A gene. This nucleotide position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will not have any significant effect on splicing. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is unlikely to be causative of primary erythermalgia/small fiber neuropathy and paroxysmal extreme pain disorder (PEPD); however, its contribution to the development of congenital insensitivity to pain (CIP) and hereditary sensory autonomic neuropathy type II (HSAN2D) is uncertain. -

This sequence change falls in intron 23 of the SCN9A gene. It does not directly change the encoded amino acid sequence of the SCN9A protein. It affects a nucleotide within the consensus splice site. This variant is present in population databases (rs773953311, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN9A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 436674). Variants that disrupt the consensus splice site are a relatively common cause of aberrant splicing (PMID: 17576681, 9536098). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant is not likely to affect RNA splicing. 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. -
