Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points: 21P and 0B. PS1_Very_Strong PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.1702G>C​(p.Gly568Arg) 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. 15/23 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another nucleotide change resulting in the same amino acid substitution has been previously reported as Likely pathogenic in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G568A) has been classified as Likely 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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 21 ACMG points.

• PS1: Transcript NM_000218.3 (KCNQ1) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar.
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 17 uncertain in NM_000218.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr11-2777003-G-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 53010.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 212 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 12 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.8321 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.90233 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to short QT syndrome type 2, long QT syndrome 1, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 1, long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, familial atrial fibrillation, atrial fibrillation, familial, 3.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.991
• PP5: Variant 11-2777002-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2777002-G-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 570319.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Other missense substitutions at this codon (p.Gly568Glu and p.Gly568Ala) have been reported in individuals affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 27041096, 12702160). A different variant (c.1702G>A) giving rise to the same protein effect observed here (p.Gly568Arg) has been reported in an individual affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 22956155). This suggests that the glycine residue is critical for KCNQ1 protein function. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. 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: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). This variant has been reported to segregate with long QT syndrome in a family and has been reported in individuals with this condition (PMID: 23392653, 22456477). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces glycine with arginine at codon 568 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Gly568Arg). The glycine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between glycine and arginine.
