Ambry Genetics RCV002314754 SCV000847504 likely benign Inborn genetic diseases 2018-09-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp RCV002469053 SCV002766147 likely benign not specified 2022-11-14 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Variant summary: SCN1A c.5568G>A (p.Met1856Ile) results in a conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Two of three in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00011 in 250732 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.0014 within the African or African-American subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within African or African-American control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 78 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in SCN1A causing SCN1A-Related Seizure Disorder phenotype (1.8e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is a benign polymorphism found primarily in populations of African or African-American origin. To our knowledge, no occurrence of c.5568G>A in individuals affected with SCN1A-Related Seizure Disorder and no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and classifed the variant as VUS (n=1) and benign/likely benign (n=3). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign.
