Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.521G>C​(p.Arg174Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R174C) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr11-2570670-C-T is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.993
• PP5: Variant 11-2570671-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2570671-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 53060.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr11-2570671-G-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

The p.R174P variant (also known as c.521G>C), located in coding exon 3 of the KCNQ1 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 521. The arginine at codon 174 is replaced by proline, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This variant has been detected in individuals from long QT syndrome (LQTS) cohorts or with QTc intervals consistent with LQTS (Napolitano C et al. JAMA. 2005 Dec;294(23):2975-80; Schwartz PJ et al. Eur Heart J. 2021 12;42:4743-4755; Ambry internal data). Another alteration at the same codon, p.R174H (c.521G>A), has also been reported in association with LQTS (Splawski I et al. Circulation. 2000;102(10):1178-85). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
