Genes affected
KCNE1 (HGNC:6240): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 1) The product of this gene belongs to the potassium channel KCNE family. Potassium ion channels are essential to many cellular functions and show a high degree of diversity, varying in their electrophysiologic and pharmacologic properties. This gene encodes a transmembrane protein known to associate with the product of the KVLQT1 gene to form the delayed rectifier potassium channel. Mutation in this gene are associated with both Jervell and Lange-Nielsen and Romano-Ward forms of long-QT syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 91 of the KCNE1 protein (p.Asp91Glu). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 24217263). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 427969). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on KCNE1 protein function. 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. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.D91E variant (also known as c.273C>G), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNE1 gene, results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 273. The aspartic acid at codon 91 is replaced by glutamic acid, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant co-occurred with a KCNQ1 mutation in an individual from a long QT syndrome cohort (Hedley PL et al. Cardiovasc J Afr, 2013 Jul;24:231-7). This variant was also reported in an arrhythmia/cardiomyopathy cohort (Robyns T et al. Eur J Hum Genet, 2017 Dec;25:1313-1323). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
