Genes affected

CACNA1B (HGNC:1389): (calcium voltage-gated channel subunit alpha1 B) The protein encoded by this gene is the pore-forming subunit of an N-type voltage-dependent calcium channel, which controls neurotransmitter release from neurons. The encoded protein forms a complex with alpha-2, beta, and delta subunits to form the high-voltage activated channel. This channel is sensitive to omega-conotoxin-GVIA and omega-agatoxin-IIIA but insensitive to dihydropyridines. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.82).
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (EAS) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.625 is higher than 0.05.
