Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 1P and 0B. PP3

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.296C>G is a missense variant predicted to cause replacement of proline with arginine at position 99. This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a maximum allele frequency of 0.0001201, with 9/74916 in the African / African-American population, which is higher than the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP PM2_Supporting threshold of <0.00001, but lower than the BS1 threshold of >0.0004, so neither criterion is met. This variant is rare and has been reported in 1 proband affected with heart murmur and sudden infant death during sleep, however, QTc interval is not available and the requirement for 2 unrelated probands has not been reached so the PS4_Supporting code is not yet met (PMID:24631775). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.861, which is above the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP PP3 threshold of >0.75 and predicts a damaging effect on KCNQ1 function (PP3). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as a variant of uncertain significance for long QT syndrome 1 based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP: PP3. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 03/04/2025). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA006767/MONDO:0100316/112

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]
