Ambry Genetics RCV002318864 SCV000851810 uncertain significance Inborn genetic diseases 2016-12-08 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R1918H variant (also known as c.5753G>A), located in coding exon 26 of the SCN2A gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 5753. The arginine at codon 1918 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This alteration was detected in one individual with febrile and tonic-clonic seizures; however, it was absent in the individual's niece who had pyknoleptic daily clusters of absence seizures. Of note, the alteration was not detected in three additional unaffected family members or in 92 controls (Haug K et al. Epilepsy Res., 2001 Dec;47:243-6). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000822218 SCV000963009 uncertain significance Seizures, benign familial infantile, 3; Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 11 2024-10-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 1918 of the SCN2A protein (p.Arg1918His). This variant is present in population databases (rs201718767, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with childhood absence epilepsy and developmental and epileptic encephalopathy and/or epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizures (PMID: 11738931, 33000761, 35715422). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 590198). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt SCN2A protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects SCN2A function (PMID: 28087622). 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.

This variant is present in 19/125972 European alleles in the Genome Aggregation Database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/rs201718767). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools for this variant are unclear. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain.
Athena Diagnostics RCV000997270 SCV004230008 uncertain significance not provided 2024-02-12 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Available data are insufficient to determine the clinical significance of the variant at this time. The frequency of this variant in the general population is higher than would generally be expected for pathogenic variants in this gene. (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) Assessment of experimental evidence suggests this variant results in abnormal protein function. (PMID: 28087622)
