Genes affected

KCNQ1 (HGNC:6294): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1) This gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel required for repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential. This protein can form heteromultimers with two other potassium channel proteins, KCNE1 and KCNE3. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary long QT syndrome 1 (also known as Romano-Ward syndrome), Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, and familial atrial fibrillation. This gene exhibits tissue-specific imprinting, with preferential expression from the maternal allele in some tissues, and biallelic expression in others. This gene is located in a region of chromosome 11 amongst other imprinted genes that are associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), and itself has been shown to be disrupted by chromosomal rearrangements in patients with BWS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 16 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 13 uncertain in NM_000218.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr11-2572086-T-C is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 200821.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 212 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 12 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.8321 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.90233 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to short QT syndrome type 2, long QT syndrome 1, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 1, long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, familial atrial fibrillation, atrial fibrillation, familial, 3.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.93
• PP5: Variant 11-2572087-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2572087-C-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 207971.

This missense variant replaces serine with cysteine at codon 253 of the KCNQ1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. This variant is located within the highly conserved cytoplasmic linker region (a.a. 249-261) of the KCNQ1 protein. Rare non-truncating variants in this region have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 32893267). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in homozygosity in an individual affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 27041150, 27485560). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
