Genes affected
NALCN (HGNC:19082): (sodium leak channel, non-selective) This gene encodes a voltage-independent, nonselective cation channel which belongs to a family of voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels that regulates the resting membrane potential and excitability of neurons. This family is expressed throughout the nervous system and conducts a persistent sodium leak current that contributes to tonic neuronal excitability. The encoded protein forms a channelosome complex that includes G-protein-coupled receptors, UNC-79, UNC-80, NCA localization factor-1, and src family tyrosine kinases. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy, infantile hypotonia with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies (IHPRF) syndrome, and congenital contractures of the limbs and face with hypotonia and developmental delay (CLIFAHDD) syndrome. A knockout of the orthologous gene in mice results in paralysis with a severely disrupted respiratory rhythm, and lethality within 24 hours after birth. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2017]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 3 uncertain in NM_052867.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the NALCN gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 63 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 9 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.9555 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 6.7536 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to congenital contractures of the limbs and face, hypotonia, and developmental delay, temporal lobe epilepsy, hypotonia, infantile, with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies 1, Sheldon-hall syndrome, digitotalar dysmorphism, hypotonia, infantile, with psychomotor retardation and characteristic facies, Freeman-Sheldon syndrome.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.749
PP5
Variant 13-101083752-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr13-101083752-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 188046.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 188046). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with arthrogryposis/congenital contractures, ataxia, developmental delay, facial dysmorphism, and/or hypotonia (PMID: 25683120, 25864427, 26763878). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 1181 of the NALCN protein (p.Arg1181Gln). -
