Genes affected

KCNJ4 (HGNC:6265): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 4) Several different potassium channels are known to be involved with electrical signaling in the nervous system. One class is activated by depolarization whereas a second class is not. The latter are referred to as inwardly rectifying K+ channels, and they have a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into the cell rather than out of it. This asymmetry in potassium ion conductance plays a key role in the excitability of muscle cells and neurons. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and member of the inward rectifier potassium channel family. The encoded protein has a small unitary conductance compared to other members of this protein family. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.

The c.969C>G (p.F323L) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the KCNJ4 gene. This alteration results from a C to G substitution at nucleotide position 969, causing the phenylalanine (F) at amino acid position 323 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
