Green List (high evidence)

Well established gene-disease association with Long QT syndrome and with Timothy syndrome. Both can present with antenatal arrhythmias, and in addition Timothy syndrome is associated with congenital anomalies (congenital heart disease and syndactyly).

Green List (high evidence)

Rodan et al. (2021) reported 25 individuals from 22 families with heterozygous truncating and missense variants in CACNA1C. The individuals presented with developmental delays, intellectual disability, autism, hypotonia, ataxia, and epilepsy BUT absence of classic features of Timothy syndrome or long QT syndrome. Functional studies of a subgroup of missense variants demonstrated loss of function, neutral effect, and gain of function on channel function in vitro.
