Invitae RCV000544887 SCV000633815 pathogenic Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts 2023-01-15 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189892). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Dravet syndrome (PMID: 18930999, 20110217, 20522430, 24502503, 25206388). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg580*) in the SCN1A gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in SCN1A are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 17347258, 18930999).
Lifecell International Pvt. Ltd RCV000180844 SCV001739359 pathogenic Severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing A heterozygous nonsense variation in exon 14 of the SCN1A gene (c.1738C>T) that results in a stop codon and premature truncation of the protein at codon 580 (p.Arg580Ter) was detected. The observed variant is not reported in 1000 genome database and gnomAD database. The reference base is conserved across the species and in-silico predictions by CADD and Mutation taster are damaging. The gene SCN1A has a low rate of benign loss of function variants as indicated by a high LoF variants Z-Score of 7.90. The p.Arg580Ter variant is a loss of function variant in the gene SCN1A, which is intolerant of Loss of Function variants, as indicated by the presence of existing pathogenic loss of function variant NP_001159435.1:p.Met1Ile and 385 others. There are 254 downstream pathogenic loss of function variants, with the furthest variant being 1346 residues downstream of the variant p.Arg580Ter. This variant has previously been reported for seizure-related syndromes by Kong et al., 2019. Based on the above evidence this variant has been classified as pathogenic according to the ACMG guidelines.

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003398874 SCV004110549 pathogenic SCN1A-related condition 2023-02-11 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The SCN1A c.1738C>T variant is predicted to result in premature protein termination (p.Arg580*). This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with epilepsy/Dravet syndrome; in at least two patients it was reported to have occurred de novo, and in a third it was described as an inherited variant that was not detectable in the parents, suggesting parental germline mosaicism (Depienne et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 18930999; Takayama et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 24502503; Kong et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30619928; Jiao et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30945278). This variant has not been reported in a large population database (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org), indicating it is rare. Nonsense variants in SCN1A are expected to be pathogenic. Taken together, this variant is interpreted as pathogenic.
