Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 27 ACMG points: 27P and 0B. PS1_Very_StrongPM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000334.4(SCN4A):c.4776G>T(p.Met1592Ile) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M1592V) has been classified as Pathogenic.

The M1592I variant in the SCN4A gene has not been reported previously as a pathogenic variant nor as a benign variant, to our knowledge. The M1592I variant was not observed in approximately 6500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The M1592I variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. A missense variant in the same residue (M1592V) has been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this residue. -
Familial hyperkalemic periodic paralysis Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 1592 of the SCN4A protein (p.Met1592Ile). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of autosomal dominant SCN4A-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 280637). 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 SCN4A protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Met1592 amino acid residue in SCN4A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 1659668, 8242056, 9131651, 18046642, 21665479, 23801527, 24943082). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
