Description
The p.S1710L variant (also known as c.5129C>T) is located in coding exon 27 of the SCN5A gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 5129. The serine at codon 1710 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in individuals with Brugada syndrome (Shin DJ et al. Life Sci, 2007 Jan;80:716-24; Millat G et al. Clin Biochem, 2009 Apr;42:491-9; Lee H et al. JAMA, 2014 Nov;312:1880-7; Ciconte G et al. Eur Heart J, 2021 03;42:1082-1090). This variant has also been detected in individuals with other SCN5A-related arrhythmias, including idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (IVF), progressive family heart block, and sick sinus syndrome (Akai J et al. FEBS Lett, 2000 Aug;479:29-34; Makita N et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol, 2012 Feb;5:163-72; Lee YS et al. Korean Circ J, 2016 Jan;46:63-71). Limited functional studies in human kidney cells have demonstrated that the alteration affected the duration of activation and inactivation of the protein (Akai J et al FEBS Lett. 2000;479(1-2):29-34 and Sharai N et al. Cardiovasc Res. 2002;53(2):348-354). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
