UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot Q14524: Variant p.Glu1053Lys

Sodium channel protein type 5 subunit alpha
Gene: SCN5A
Chromosomal location: 3p21
Variant information

Variant position:  1053
The position of the amino-acid change on the UniProtKB canonical protein sequence.

Type of variant:  Disease [Disclaimer]
The variants are classified into three categories: Disease, Polymorphism and Unclassified.
  • Disease: Variants implicated in disease according to literature reports.
  • Polymorphism: Variants not reported to be implicated in disease.
  • Unclassified: Variants with uncertain implication in disease according to literature reports. Evidence against or in favor of a pathogenic role is limited and/or conflicting.

Residue change:  From Glutamate (E) to Lysine (K) at position 1053 (E1053K, p.Glu1053Lys).
Indicates the amino acid change of the variant. The one-letter and three-letter codes for amino acids used in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot are those adopted by the commission on Biochemical Nomenclature of the IUPAC-IUB.

Physico-chemical properties:  Change from medium size and acidic (E) to large size and basic (K)
The physico-chemical property of the reference and variant residues and the change implicated.

BLOSUM score:  1
The score within a Blosum matrix for the corresponding wild-type to variant amino acid change. The log-odds score measures the logarithm for the ratio of the likelihood of two amino acids appearing by chance. The Blosum62 substitution matrix is used. This substitution matrix contains scores for all possible exchanges of one amino acid with another:
  • Lowest score: -4 (low probability of substitution).
  • Highest score: 11 (high probability of substitution).

Involvement in disease:  Long QT syndrome 3 (LQT3) [MIM:603830]: A heart disorder characterized by a prolonged QT interval on the ECG and polymorphic ventricular arrhythmias. They cause syncope and sudden death in response to exercise or emotional stress, and can present with a sentinel event of sudden cardiac death in infancy. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10377081, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10508990, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10590249, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10627139, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10911008, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10973849, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11304498, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11410597, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11710892, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11889015, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11997281, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12209021, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12454206, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12673799, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15840476, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16414944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16922724, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18060054, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18451998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18708744, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18848812, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18929331, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19716085, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26392562, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7651517, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7889574, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8541846, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9506831, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9686753, ECO:0000269|Ref.35}.

Involvement in disease:  Atrial fibrillation, familial, 10 (ATFB10) [MIM:614022]: A familial form of atrial fibrillation, a common sustained cardiac rhythm disturbance. Atrial fibrillation is characterized by disorganized atrial electrical activity and ineffective atrial contraction promoting blood stasis in the atria and reduces ventricular filling. It can result in palpitations, syncope, thromboembolic stroke, and congestive heart failure. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18088563, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18378609}.

Involvement in disease:  Brugada syndrome 1 (BRGDA1) [MIM:601144]: A tachyarrhythmia characterized by right bundle branch block and ST segment elevation on an electrocardiogram (ECG). It can cause the ventricles to beat so fast that the blood is prevented from circulating efficiently in the body. When this situation occurs, the individual will faint and may die in a few minutes if the heart is not reset. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10532948, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10618304, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10690282, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11410597, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11748104, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11823453, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11901046, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12051963, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12106943, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15023552, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15338453, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15579534, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15851320, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16266370, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16325048, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16616735, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17075016, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17081365, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17198989, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18252757, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18341814, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18451998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18456723, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18616619, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19251209, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19272188, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20129283, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23085483, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23420830, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24167619, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26279430, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26776555, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9521325}.
