GeneDx RCV000732133 SCV000571342 uncertain significance not provided 2016-08-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the CACNA1A gene. The R2170C variant has not beenpublished as a pathogenic variant, nor has it been reported as a benign variant to our knowledge. Although theR2170C was not observed with any significant frequency in approximately 6,000 individuals of European and AfricanAmerican ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, the data was noted to have reduced depth of sequencingreads and therefore may be unreliable. The R2170C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which islikely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties.This substitution occurs at a position that is conserved across species and in silico analysis predicts this variant isprobably damaging to the protein structure/function. However, missense variants in nearby residues have not beenreported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with CACNA1A-related disorders (Stenson et al.,2014). Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenicvariant or a rare benign variant.

Ambry Genetics RCV002311805 SCV000847338 uncertain significance Inborn genetic diseases 2016-07-25 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R2170C variant (also known as c.6508C>T), located in coding exon 45 of the CACNA1A gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 6508. The arginine at codon 2170 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly 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.
