Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points: 19P and 0B. PS1_Very_Strong PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Moderate PP5_Moderate

The NM_172107.4(KCNQ2):​c.915C>G​(p.Phe305Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another nucleotide change resulting in same amino acid change has been previously reported as Likely pathogenicin ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. F305S) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 19 ACMG points.

• PS1: Transcript NM_172107.4 (KCNQ2) is affected with MISSENSE_VARIANT having same AA change as one Pathogenic present in ClinVar as 205887
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 12 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 4 uncertain in NM_172107.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr20-63439611-A-G is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 2818350.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, KCNQ2
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.894
• PP5: Variant 20-63439610-G-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63439610-G-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 461423.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C15"). This protein change has been observed to be de novo in individuals affected with early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 25473036, Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 461423). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with leucine at codon 305 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Phe305Leu). The phenylalanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and leucine. -
