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]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJan 15, 2016The p.Val511Ile variant in KCNQ4 has not been previously reported in individuals with hearing loss, but has been identified in 1/16510 South Asian chromosomes b y the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs778538229). Although this variant has been seen in the general population, its frequency is not high enough to rule out a pathogenic role. Computational predi ction tools and conservation analyses suggest that the p.Val511Ile variant may n ot impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to rule out pathogenicity. Of note, one mammal (Cape elephant shrew) has an isoleucine ( Ile) at this position despite nearby amino acid conservation. In summary, the cl inical significance of the p.Val511Ile variant is uncertain. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpAug 28, 2023In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt KCNQ4 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 228770). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNQ4-related conditions. This variant is present in population databases (rs778538229, gnomAD 0.003%). This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 511 of the KCNQ4 protein (p.Val511Ile). -
