Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000553399 SCV000633807 likely pathogenic Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts 2017-08-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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. Family studies have indicated that this variant was not present in the parents of an individual with SCN1A-related disease, which suggests that it was de novo in that affected individual (Invitae). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This sequence change replaces cysteine with tryptophan at codon 336 of the SCN1A protein (p.Cys336Trp). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and tryptophan. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant identified in the SCN1A gene is located in the extracellular D1-P1 region of the resulting protein (PMID: 25348405, 18804930), but it is unclear how this variant impacts the function of this protein.
