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]

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant, c.47_49dup, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid(s) of the KCNQ3 protein (p.Gly16dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has been observed in individuals with autosomal dominant KCNQ3-related conditions (internal data). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 538549). 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. -

The c.47_49dupGCG (p.G16dup) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the KCNQ3 gene. The alteration consists of an in-frame duplication of 3 nucleotides from position 47 to 49, resulting in the duplication of 1 residue. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
