Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000687889 SCV000815481 pathogenic Episodic ataxia type 2; Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 42 2020-02-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Donor and acceptor splice site variants typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in CACNA1A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 10371528, 19486177, 25735478, 27250579). This variant disrupts the c.4953+1 nucleotide in the CACNA1A gene. Other variant(s) that disrupt this nucleotide have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24420976). This suggests that this nucleotide is clinically-significant, and that variants that disrupt this position are likely to be disease-causing. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with CACNA1A-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 567724). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change affects a donor splice site in intron 31 of the CACNA1A gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing and likely results in an absent or disrupted protein product.
