Genes affected
SCN8A (HGNC:10596): (sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 8) This gene encodes a member of the sodium channel alpha subunit gene family. The encoded protein forms the ion pore region of the voltage-gated sodium channel. This protein is essential for the rapid membrane depolarization that occurs during the formation of the action potential in excitable neurons. Mutations in this gene are associated with cognitive disability, pancerebellar atrophy and ataxia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 6 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP2
Missense variant in the SCN8A gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 213 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 45 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 0.78755 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 10.436 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to myoclonus, familial, 2, infantile convulsions and choreoathetosis, cognitive impairment with or without cerebellar ataxia, undetermined early-onset epileptic encephalopathy, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 13, benign familial infantile epilepsy, seizures, benign familial infantile, 5.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.874
PP5
Variant 12-51790419-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-51790419-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 280470.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=2, Pathogenic=1}.

The heterozygous missense p.Met1481Val variant is absent from the gnomAD database. The variant has been submitted to the ClinVar database by other genetic testing laboratories, including one instance where a laboratory has reported this variant as confirmed de novo in a patient with seizures [Variation ID: 280470]. Most of the SCN8A pathogenic variants reported to-date are missense and de novo [NBK379665; PMID: 25568300]. The p.Met1481Val variant is predicted deleterious by multiple in silico prediction tools. The affected residue is evolutionarily conserved and is predicted to be located in the cytoplasmic loop between the third and fourth homologous repeat domains [PMID: 26029160]. Based on available evidence along with the observation that the proband has inherited this variant from her affected mother, the p.Met1481Val variant in the SCN8A gene is assessed as likely pathogenic. -

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1481 of the SCN8A protein (p.Met1481Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with SCN8A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280470). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). 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. -
