Genes affected
KCNQ2 (HGNC:6296): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 2) The M channel is a slowly activating and deactivating potassium channel that plays a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability. The M channel is formed by the association of the protein encoded by this gene and a related protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene, both integral membrane proteins. M channel currents are inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. Defects in this gene are a cause of benign familial neonatal convulsions type 1 (BFNC), also known as epilepsy, benign neonatal type 1 (EBN1). At least five transcript variants encoding five different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The V543M variant has been previously reported in an individual with benign familial neonatal seizures; the variant was also identified in the affected father and 2 paternal aunts (Lee et al., 2017). Functional studies demonstrate the V543M variant causes a mild electrophysiological change in channel function compared to wild type (Lee et al., 2017). Missense variants in nearby residues have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in individuals with with KCNQ2-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014). The V543M variant is observed in 1/108796 (0.001%) alleles from individuals of European background (Lek et al., 2016). However, the V543M variant is a conservative amino acid substitution, which is not likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues share similar properties. In-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is a pathogenic variant or a rare benign variant. -

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

The p.V543M variant (also known as c.1627G>A), located in coding exon 14 of the KCNQ2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1627. The valine at codon 543 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been determined to be the result of a de novo mutation or germline mosaicism in one family with an isolated case of KCNQ2-related seizure disorder. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -

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

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 543 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Val543Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs794727134, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures or early infantile epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 28399683, 29056246, 31199083; internal data). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 194446). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt KCNQ2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ2 function (PMID: 28399683). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
