Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely benign. Variant got -2 ACMG points: 0P and 2B. BP4_Moderate

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.1343C>T​(p.Pro448Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000397 in 1,613,266 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. P448R) has been classified as 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]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1Benign:2
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineMar 04, 2020The p.Pro448Leu variant in KCNQ1 is classified as likely benign due to a lack of conservation across species as 4 mammals carry a leucine (Leu) at this position despite high nearby amino acid conservation. In addition, computational prediction tools predict that this variant does not impact the protein. This variant has been identified in 0.03% (2/7204) of "other population" chromosomes and 0.004% (5/128667) of European chromosomes (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org). ACMG/AMP Criteria applied: BP4_Strong. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 18, 2024Variant summary: KCNQ1 c.1343C>T (p.Pro448Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2e-05 in 250376 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1343C>T has been reported in the literature in one affected family member with prolonged QT interval and four unaffected family members, but not in another family members with prolonged QT interval, indicating the variant of interest is not associated with the disease in this family (Kapplinger_2009, Giudicessi_2013). At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function and this variant results in mild effect on protein function (Glazer_2021) in vitro. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 23392653, 34930020, 19716085, 25854863, 29033053). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67027). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 05, 2017This variant is considered likely benign or benign based on one or more of the following criteria: it is a conservative change, it occurs at a poorly conserved position in the protein, it is predicted to be benign by multiple in silico algorithms, and/or has population frequency not consistent with disease. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthNov 28, 2023This missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 448 of the KCNQ1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that this variant results in reduced channel peak current density when expressed in Chinese hamster ovary cells (PMID: 34930020). This variant has been reported in a proband affected with long QT syndrome as well as in four relatives with normal QT intervals (PMID: 23392653). In this family, another four individuals with significant QT prolongation were not carriers of this variant, but a different variant in the same gene, p.Pro320Ser (ClinVar variation ID 67130), which was also carried by the proband. This variant has also been reported in another individual noted with syncope in a population screening study, who had no previous indication for cardiac genetic screening (PMID: 34930020). This variant has been identified in 7/281750 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Long QT syndrome 1 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaMay 07, 2019This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsOct 02, 2019The c.1343C>T (p.P448L) alteration is located in exon 10 (coding exon 10) of the KCNQ1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1343, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 448 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
