Description

In a patient with focal epilepsy and speech disorder (FESD; 245570), with the clinical diagnosis of continuous spike and waves during slow-wave sleep syndrome, Lesca et al. (2013) identified a heterozygous c.1553G-A transition in the GRIN2A gene, resulting in an arg518-to-his (R518H) substitution at a highly conserved residue in the extracellular ligand-binding domain. The mutation was not found in the dbSNP, 1000 Genomes, or Exome Variant Server databases. The mutation was also present in the patient's brother, who had atypical rolandic epilepsy with dysphasia, and the father, who had verbal dyspraxia but no seizures. Another sib of the proband, who did not carry the mutation, had centrotemporal spikes on EEG without seizures, thus representing a phenocopy. In vitro functional expression studies in HEK293 cells showed that the mutation caused a significant increase in the open time and a decrease in the closed time of NMDA channels compared to wildtype, consistent with a modulatory effect on the excitatory postsynaptic current.

Description

Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt GRIN2A protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Arg518 amino acid residue in GRIN2A. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects GRIN2A function (PMID: 23933820, 27839871). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 88732). This missense change has been observed in individuals with Landau-Kleffner syndrome and verbal dyspraxia, atypical Rolandic epilepsy, and continuous spike and wave during slow-wave sleep syndrome (PMID: 23933820, 24828792). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 518 of the GRIN2A protein (p.Arg518His).
