Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM2

The NM_004588.5(SCN2B):c.25C>T(p.Arg9Cys) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000342 in 1,461,804 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R9H) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

SCN2B (HGNC:10589): (sodium voltage-gated channel beta subunit 2) The protein encoded by this gene is the beta 2 subunit of the type II voltage-gated sodium channel. The encoded protein is involved in cell-cell adhesion and cell migration. Defects in this gene can be a cause of Brugada Syndrome, atrial fibrillation, or sudden infant death syndrome.

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 9 of the SCN2B protein (p.Arg9Cys). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN2B-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 239958). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -
