Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 2P and 0B. PM4

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.168_169insATCGCGCCCATCGCGCCC​(p.Pro56_Gly57insIleAlaProIleAlaPro) variant causes a conservative inframe insertion change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000674 in 148,266 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type INS_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. G57G) has been classified as Likely benign.

Genes affected
KCNQ1 (HGNC:6294): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1) This gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel required for repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential. This protein can form heteromultimers with two other potassium channel proteins, KCNE1 and KCNE3. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary long QT syndrome 1 (also known as Romano-Ward syndrome), Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, and familial atrial fibrillation. This gene exhibits tissue-specific imprinting, with preferential expression from the maternal allele in some tissues, and biallelic expression in others. This gene is located in a region of chromosome 11 amongst other imprinted genes that are associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), and itself has been shown to be disrupted by chromosomal rearrangements in patients with BWS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

The c.168_169ins18 variant (also known as p.P56_G57insIAPIAP), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNQ1 gene, results from an in-frame 18 nucleotide insertion at nucleotide positions 168 to 169. This results in the insertion of 6 extra residues between codons 56 and 57. This amino acid region is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
