Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_004519.4(KCNQ3):c.929G>A(p.Gly310Asp) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G310V) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Genes affected

KCNQ3 (HGNC:6297): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 3) This gene encodes a protein that functions in the regulation of neuronal excitability. The encoded protein forms an M-channel by associating with the products of the related KCNQ2 or KCNQ5 genes, which both encode integral membrane proteins. M-channel currents are inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and are activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. Defects in this gene are a cause of benign familial neonatal convulsions type 2 (BFNC2), also known as epilepsy, benign neonatal type 2 (EBN2). Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 5 uncertain in NM_004519.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr8-132175457-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 7392.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.958
• PP5: Variant 8-132175457-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr8-132175457-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 1067197.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 310 of the KCNQ3 protein (p.Gly310Asp). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. This variant disrupts the p.Gly310 amino acid residue in KCNQ3. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9425900). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt KCNQ3 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1067197). This missense change has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant KCNQ3-related conditions (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). -
