Genes affected
KCNJ5 (HGNC:6266): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 5) This gene encodes an integral membrane protein which belongs to one of seven subfamilies of inward-rectifier potassium channel proteins called potassium channel subfamily J. The encoded protein is a subunit of the potassium channel which is homotetrameric. It is controlled by G-proteins and has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell. Naturally occurring mutations in this gene are associated with aldosterone-producing adenomas. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]

Variant summary: KCNJ5 c.554G>T (p.Cys185Phe) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Inward rectifier potassium channel transmembrane domain (IPR040445) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-06 in 251468 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.554G>T has been reported in the literature in one individuals affected with Hyperplastic polyposis, without strong evidence for causality (Henn_2019). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Familial hyperaldosteronism type III. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30680046). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 572313). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Has not been previously published as pathogenic or benign to our knowledge; Reported as a variant of uncertain significance in ClinVar but additional evidence is not available (ref; ClinVar SCV000821545.1; Landrum et al., 2016) -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces cysteine with phenylalanine at codon 185 of the KCNJ5 protein (p.Cys185Phe). The cysteine residue is highly conserved and there is a large physicochemical difference between cysteine and phenylalanine. This variant is present in population databases (rs760375676, ExAC 0.001%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with KCNJ5-related disease. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.C185F variant (also known as c.554G>T), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNJ5 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 554. The cysteine at codon 185 is replaced by phenylalanine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
