Genes affected

KCNA5 (HGNC:6224): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 5) Potassium channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ino channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. Four sequence-related potassium channel genes - shaker, shaw, shab, and shal - have been identified in Drosophila, and each has been shown to have human homolog(s). This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, shaker-related subfamily. This member contains six membrane-spanning domains with a shaker-type repeat in the fourth segment. It belongs to the delayed rectifier class, the function of which could restore the resting membrane potential of beta cells after depolarization and thereby contribute to the regulation of insulin secretion. This gene is intronless, and the gene is clustered with genes KCNA1 and KCNA6 on chromosome 12. Defects in this gene are a cause of familial atrial fibrillation type 7 (ATFB7).

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 568 of the KCNA5 protein (p.Gly568Val). This variant is present in population databases (rs71581017, gnomAD 0.04%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with atrial fibrillation (AF) and in an unrelated individual with AF. However, in a separate study, this variant was not observed in any of the participants of an AF cohort and was only observed in several control individuals without a history of AF (PMID: 22402074, 23264583, 25410959). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374033). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function outputs the following: PolyPhen-2: "Benign". The valine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on KCNA5 function (PMID: 22402074). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
