Genes affected

CLCN4 (HGNC:2022): (chloride voltage-gated channel 4) The CLCN family of voltage-dependent chloride channel genes comprises nine members (CLCN1-7, Ka and Kb) which demonstrate quite diverse functional characteristics while sharing significant sequence homology. Chloride channel 4 has an evolutionary conserved CpG island and is conserved in both mouse and hamster. This gene is mapped in close proximity to APXL (Apical protein Xenopus laevis-like) and OA1 (Ocular albinism type I), which are both located on the human X chromosome at band p22.3. The physiological role of chloride channel 4 remains unknown but may contribute to the pathogenesis of neuronal disorders. Alternate splicing results in two transcript variants that encode different proteins. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2012]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 15 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in gene, where missense usually causes diseases (based on misZ statistic), CLCN4. . Gene score misZ 4.5166 (greater than the threshold 3.09). GenCC has associacion of gene with non-syndromic X-linked intellectual disability, intellectual disability, X-linked 49.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.969
• PP5: Variant X-10213768-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chrX-10213768-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 209115.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chrX-10213768-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 04, 2024	This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 555 of the CLCN4 protein (p.Ala555Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with CLCN4-related conditions (PMID: 27550844). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 209115). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on CLCN4 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects CLCN4 function (PMID: 27550844). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
