Genes affected
KCNQ4 (HGNC:6298): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 4) The protein encoded by this gene forms a potassium channel that is thought to play a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability, particularly in sensory cells of the cochlea. The current generated by this channel is inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. The encoded protein can form a homomultimeric potassium channel or possibly a heteromultimeric channel in association with the protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonsyndromic sensorineural deafness type 2 (DFNA2), an autosomal dominant form of progressive hearing loss. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -7 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.09252223).
BS1
Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4_exome allele frequency = 0.0000271 (29/1072078) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.000972 (24/24680). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.00067. There are 0 homozygotes in gnomad4_exome. There are 18 alleles in male gnomad4_exome subpopulation. Median coverage is 30. This position pass quality control queck. Existence of Clinvar submissions makes me limit the strength of this signal to Supporting
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 29 AD gene.
