Invitae RCV000804066 SCV000943960 pathogenic Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts 2022-12-02 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts a region of the SCN1A protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg1886*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17054684, 18930999; Invitae). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 189870). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with Dravet syndrome (PMID: 21248271, 21868258, 28202706). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg1636*) in the SCN1A gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 374 amino acid(s) of the SCN1A protein.

Lifecell International Pvt. Ltd RCV003128152 SCV003804179 pathogenic Severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy; Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, type 2; Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 6B criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The stop gained NM_001165963.4 (SCN1A):c.4906C>T (p.Arg1636Ter) has been reported to ClinVar as Pathogenic with a status of (2 stars) criteria provided, multiple submitters, no conflicts (Variation ID 189870 as of 2021-11-04). The p.Arg1636Ter variant is novel (not in any individuals) in gnomAD. The p.Arg1636Ter variant is novel (not in any individuals) in 1kG. This variant is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function through protein truncation. This variant has been previously classified as pathogenic, indicating that the region is critical to protein function. There are 66 downstream pathogenic loss of function variants, with the furthest variant being 297 residues downstream of this variant. This indicates that the region is critical to protein function. The gene SCN1A has a low rate of benign loss of function variants as indicated by a low upper bound of the observed/expected confidence interval 0.07. The p.Arg1636Ter 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.M1I and 513 others. The c.4906C>T variant in SCN1A is predicted conserved by GERP++ and PhyloP and damaging by CADD. This variant has previously been reported for focal epilepsy by Meng-Han Tsai et al., 2018. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
