Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the KCNE1 gene is commonly pathogenic or not. These statistics are base on transcript: NM_000000219.6. Only rare variants are included in the table.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Ancillary protein that assembles as a beta subunit with a voltage-gated potassium channel complex of pore-forming alpha subunits. Modulates the gating kinetics and enhances stability of the channel complex. Assembled with KCNB1 modulates the gating characteristics of the delayed rectifier voltage-dependent potassium channel KCNB1 (PubMed:19219384). Assembled with KCNQ1/KVLQT1 is proposed to form the slowly activating delayed rectifier cardiac potassium (IKs) channel. The outward current reaches its steady state only after 50 seconds. Assembled with KCNH2/HERG may modulate the rapidly activating component of the delayed rectifying potassium current in heart (IKr). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19219384}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 2 (JLNS2) [MIM:612347]: An autosomal recessive disorder characterized by congenital deafness, prolongation of the QT interval, syncopal attacks due to ventricular arrhythmias, and a high risk of sudden death. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10400998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21676880, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9328483, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9354783}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Long QT syndrome 5 (LQT5) [MIM:613695]: 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:10400998, ECO:0000269|PubMed:10973849, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11692163, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16414944, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19716085, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25037568, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9354802, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9445165}.
