Genes affected

KCNJ2 (HGNC:6263): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 2) 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, probably participates in establishing action potential waveform and excitability of neuronal and muscle tissues. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Andersen syndrome, which is characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and dysmorphic features. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Benign. The variant received -21 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.48).
• BP6: Variant 17-70175213-C-T is Benign according to our data. Variant chr17-70175213-C-T is described in ClinVar as Benign/Likely_benign. ClinVar VariationId is 137983.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=1.36 with no splicing effect.
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population amr. GnomAdExome4 allele frequency = 0.0000267 (39/1461894) while in subpopulation AMR AF = 0.000872 (39/44724). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.000655. There are 0 homozygotes in GnomAdExome4. There are 11 alleles in the male GnomAdExome4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position passed quality control check.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 39 AD gene.
