RCV000189264 | SCV000242896 | uncertain significance | not provided | 2016-10-18 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | p.Arg662Cys (CGT>TGT): c.1984 C>T in exon 12 of the SCN8A gene (NM_014191.3) A variant of unknown significance has been identified in the SCN8A gene. The Arg662Cys variant has not been published as a mutation, nor has it been reported as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. It was not observed in approximately 6,000 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. The Arg662Cys variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. This substitution alters a conserved position in the cytoplasmic region between the first and second homologous domains. However, missense mutations associated with epilepsy have not been reported in this region of the protein. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic mutation or a rare benign variant. The variant is found in INFANT-EPI panel(s). |
