Genes affected
KCTD7 (HGNC:21957): (potassium channel tetramerization domain containing 7) This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel tetramerization domain-containing protein family. Family members are identified on a structural basis and contain an amino-terminal domain similar to the T1 domain present in the voltage-gated potassium channel. Mutations in this gene have been associated with progressive myoclonic epilepsy-3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Jan 2011]

Progressive myoclonic epilepsy type 3 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score, this variant could not be ruled out of causing disease and therefore its association with disease required further investigation. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (if applicable). No publications were found based on this search. This variant was therefore classified as a variant of unknown significance for this disease. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeAug 05, 2022This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 121 of the KCTD7 protein (p.Arg121Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs199624315, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with KCTD7-related conditions (PMID: 30295347, 32581362). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206020). 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: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C25"). 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. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpMar 29, 2024Variant summary: KCTD7 c.362G>T (p.Arg121Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the BTB/POZ domain (IPR000210) 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 3.2e-05 in 251460 control chromosomes (gnomAD). c.362G>T has been reported in the literature in the compound heterozygous state in two siblings affected with progressive myoclonic epilepsy (Metz_2018), and in at least one other individual, suspected of a neurodevelopmental disorder who was affected with seizures (Turro_2020, Sanchis-Juan_2023). These data indicate that the variant may be associated with disease. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publications have been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 30295347, 37541188, 32581362). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 206020). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 12, 2017The p.R121L variant (also known as c.362G>T), located in coding exon 3 of the KCTD7 gene, results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 362. The arginine at codon 121 is replaced by leucine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
