Genes affected

KCNQ2 (HGNC:6296): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 2) The M channel is a slowly activating and deactivating potassium channel that plays a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability. The M channel is formed by the association of the protein encoded by this gene and a related protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene, both integral membrane proteins. M channel currents are inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. Defects in this gene are a cause of benign familial neonatal convulsions type 1 (BFNC), also known as epilepsy, benign neonatal type 1 (EBN1). At least five transcript variants encoding five different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

LOC105372724 (HGNC:):

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Splicing +-2 bp (donor or acceptor) variant, product NOT destroyed by NMD, known LOF gene, truncates exone, which is 0.050400916 fraction of the gene. Cryptic splice site detected, with MaxEntScore 5, offset of -29, new splice context is: gccgggggtctctggcccAGggc. Cryptic site results in frameshift change. If cryptic site found is not functional and variant results in exon loss, it results in inframe change.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 20-63413582-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63413582-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 205909.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may disrupt the consensus splice site. This sequence change affects an acceptor splice site in intron 14 of the KCNQ2 gene. It is expected to disrupt RNA splicing. Variants that disrupt the donor or acceptor splice site typically lead to a loss of protein function (PMID: 16199547), and loss-of-function variants in KCNQ2 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 14534157, 23692823, 27779742). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of this splice site has been observed in individuals with clinical features of KCNQ2-related conditions (PMID: 9425895; Invitae). This variant is also known as 544-1 G to A. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205909). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

c.1632-1 G>A: IVS14-1 G>A in intron 14 of the KCNQ2 gene (NM_172107.2) The c.1632-1 G>A splice site mutation in the KCNQ2 gene has been previously reported in association with benign familial neonatal seizures as 544-1 G>A using alternative nomenclature (Singh et al., 1998), and is consistent with a diagnosis. This mutation destroys the canonical splice acceptor site in intron 14 and is expected to cause abnormal gene splicing. The variant is found in INFANT-EPI panel(s). -
