Ivone Leong (Genomics England Curator)

Comment on mode of inheritance: MOI was changed back from "Both monoallelic and biallelic" to "Monoallelic", which reflects the original MOI of the signed off panel (version 3.2). The MOI will be changed back to "Both monoallelic and biallelic" after the panel has been reviewed.

Arina Puzriakova (Genomics England Curator)

Added 'for-review' tag as the MOI has changed since previous sign-off of this panel (version 3.2) and requires review by the Specialist Test Group.

Sarah Leigh (Genomics England Curator)

Just 2 families reported with possible AR inheritance: v rare - all het parents seem to have features so prob ok to keep as monoallelic only (source NHS Genomic Medicine Service).

Panel Version: 3.1510
Comment on mode of pathogenicity: Based on report in PMID 31625145, reporting biallelic loss of function SCN8A variants in three cases in two families with severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy. This differs from the previosly reported gain of function monoallelic variants (PMID 24194747;22365152).
