BACKGROUND: A portion of sudden cardiac deaths can be attributed to structural heart diseases, such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) or cardiac channelopathies such as long-QT syndrome (LQTS); however, the underlying molecular mechanisms are distinct. Here, we identify a novel CACNA1C missense mutation with mixed loss-of-function/gain-of-function responsible for a complex phenotype of LQTS, HCM, sudden cardiac death, and congenital heart defects.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Whole exome sequencing in combination with Ingenuity variant analysis was completed on 3 affected individuals and 1 unaffected individual from a large pedigree with concomitant LQTS, HCM, and congenital heart defects and identified a novel CACNA1C mutation, p.Arg518Cys, as the most likely candidate mutation. Mutational analysis of exon 12 of CACNA1C was completed on 5 additional patients with a similar phenotype of LQTS plus a personal or family history of HCM-like phenotypes and identified 2 additional pedigrees with mutations at the same position, p.Arg518Cys/His. Whole cell patch clamp technique was used to assess the electrophysiological effects of the identified mutations in CaV1.2 and revealed a complex phenotype, including loss of current density and inactivation in combination with increased window and late current.
CONCLUSIONS: Through whole exome sequencing and expanded cohort screening, we identified a novel genetic substrate p.Arg518Cys/His-CACNA1C, in patients with a complex phenotype including LQTS, HCM, and congenital heart defects annotated as cardiac-only Timothy syndrome. Our electrophysiological studies, identification of mutations at the same amino acid position in multiple pedigrees, and cosegregation with disease in these pedigrees provide evidence that p.Arg518Cys/His is the pathogenic substrate for the observed phenotype.
