Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000548843 SCV000632172 uncertain significance Idiopathic generalized epilepsy; Hyperaldosteronism, familial, type IV 2017-05-10 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces threonine with alanine at codon 1588 of the CACNA1H protein (p.Thr1588Ala). The threonine residue is weakly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between threonine and alanine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency) and has not been reported in the literature in individuals with a CACNA1H-related disease. 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 tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirm ed by published functional studies. In summary, this variant is a novel missense change that is not predicted to affect protein function. There is no indication that it causes disease, but the available evidence is currently insufficient to prove that conclusively. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
