Genes affected
KCNJ2 (HGNC:6263): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 2) Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, probably participates in establishing action potential waveform and excitability of neuronal and muscle tissues. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Andersen syndrome, which is characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and dysmorphic features. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Andersen Tawil syndrome;C1865018:Short QT syndrome type 3 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 04, 2023This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 70 of the KCNJ2 protein (p.Ala70Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs375605948, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of long QT syndrome (PMID: 30847666). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403977). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt KCNJ2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -
not specified Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 21, 2023Variant summary: KCNJ2 c.208G>T (p.Ala70Ser) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Potassium channel, inwardly rectifying, transmembrane domain (IPR040445) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4.8e-05 in 251482 control chromosomes (gnomAD). The observed variant frequency is approximately 4.77 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in KCNJ2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (1e-05), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.208G>T has been reported in the literature in an individual affected with long QT syndrome (van Lint_2019). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30847666). Five submitters have cited clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. All submitters classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 29, 2023This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
