Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM1PP3

The NM_004700.4(KCNQ4):c.832A>G(p.Thr278Ala) variant causes a missense, splice region change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000062 in 1,613,312 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T278T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

KCNQ4 (HGNC:6298): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 4) The protein encoded by this gene forms a potassium channel that is thought to play a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability, particularly in sensory cells of the cochlea. The current generated by this channel is inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. The encoded protein can form a homomultimeric potassium channel or possibly a heteromultimeric channel in association with the protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene. Defects in this gene are a cause of nonsyndromic sensorineural deafness type 2 (DFNA2), an autosomal dominant form of progressive hearing loss. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
