Genes affected

HCN4 (HGNC:16882): (hyperpolarization activated cyclic nucleotide gated potassium channel 4) This gene encodes a member of the hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated potassium channels. The encoded protein shows slow kinetics of activation and inactivation, and is necessary for the cardiac pacemaking process. This channel may also mediate responses to sour stimuli. Mutations in this gene have been linked to sick sinus syndrome 2, also known as atrial fibrillation with bradyarrhythmia or familial sinus bradycardia. Two pseudogenes have been identified on chromosome 15. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.993
• PP5: Variant 15-73329719-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr15-73329719-C-G is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 374859.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr15-73329719-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 482 of the HCN4 protein (p.Gly482Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of HCN4-related conditions (PMID: 25145517, 25145518, 26206080, 26688388, 28104484, 30471092). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374859). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt HCN4 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects HCN4 function (PMID: 25145517, 25145518). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
