RCV001206104 | SCV001377395 | uncertain significance | Hypokalemic periodic paralysis, type 1; Malignant hyperthermia, susceptibility to, 5 | 2019-08-23 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This sequence change replaces valine with alanine at codon 70 of the CACNA1S protein (p.Val70Ala). The valine residue is moderately conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between valine and alanine. This variant is present in population databases (rs747599178, ExAC 0.02%). 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The alanine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, suggesting that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. These predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CACNA1S-related conditions. |
