Genes affected
SCN4A (HGNC:10591): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 4) Voltage-gated sodium channels are transmembrane glycoprotein complexes composed of a large alpha subunit with 24 transmembrane domains and one or more regulatory beta subunits. They are responsible for the generation and propagation of action potentials in neurons and muscle. This gene encodes one member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. It is expressed in skeletal muscle, and mutations in this gene have been linked to several myotonia and periodic paralysis disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1650 of the SCN4A protein (p.Pro1650Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs774183791, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal recessive SCN4A-related conditions (PMID: 30369941, 32487525). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 586523). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt SCN4A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN4A function (PMID: 32487525). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
