Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Moderate

The NM_000217.3(KCNA1):​c.496G>A​(p.Ala166Thr) 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 Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A166P) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Genes affected

KCNA1 (HGNC:6218): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily A member 1) This gene encodes a voltage-gated delayed potassium channel that is phylogenetically related to the Drosophila Shaker channel. The encoded protein has six putative transmembrane segments (S1-S6), and the loop between S5 and S6 forms the pore and contains the conserved selectivity filter motif (GYGD). The functional channel is a homotetramer. The N-terminus of the channel is associated with beta subunits that can modify the inactivation properties of the channel as well as affect expression levels. The C-terminus of the channel is complexed to a PDZ domain protein that is responsible for channel targeting. Mutations in this gene have been associated with myokymia with periodic ataxia (AEMK).

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a transmembrane_region Helical; Name=Segment S1 (size 21) in uniprot entity KCNA1_HUMAN there are 4 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000217.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the KCNA1 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 33 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 3 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.3255 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.8671 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to isolated autosomal dominant hypomagnesemia, Glaudemans type, episodic ataxia type 1, genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia 1.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.894

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 166 of the KCNA1 protein (p.Ala166Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNA1-related conditions. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In 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. -
