Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 22 ACMG points: 22P and 0B. PS3 PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000525.4(KCNJ11):​c.149G>A​(p.Arg50Gln) 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. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV002576976: Published functional studies demonstrate a reduction in the sensitivity of the K(ATP) channel to inhibition by MgATP causing significantly enhanced whole-cell K(ATP) currents, which is expected to reduce insulin secretion (Girard et al., 2006" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R50W) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

Genes affected

KCNJ11 (HGNC:6257): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 11) Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins and is found associated with the sulfonylurea receptor SUR. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by unregulated insulin secretion. Defects in this gene may also contribute to autosomal dominant non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type II (NIDDM), transient neonatal diabetes mellitus type 3 (TNDM3), and permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
