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]

Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 15, 2023This variant, c.5420_5425del, results in the deletion of 2 amino acid(s) of the SCN4A protein (p.Leu1807_Met1808del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs781515976, gnomAD 0.1%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN4A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 212133). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

SCN4A-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMay 25, 2023The SCN4A c.5420_5425del6 variant is predicted to result in an in-frame deletion (p.Leu1807_Met1808del). To our knowledge, this variant has not been reported in the literature. This variant is reported in 0.10% of alleles in individuals of African descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-62018216-GGCATCA-G). Although we suspect that this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
