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]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 27 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 10 uncertain in NM_172107.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr20-63439657-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 1803794.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the KCNQ2 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 319 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 78 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.0411 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.6968 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to benign familial infantile epilepsy, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 7, benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures, benign neonatal seizures, neonatal-onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, seizures, benign familial neonatal, 2, seizures, benign familial neonatal, 1, neonatal encephalopathy with non-epileptic myoclonus.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.988
• PP5: Variant 20-63439656-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63439656-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 39762.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The G290D pathogenic variant has been identified as a de novo change in multiple unrelated individuals with early onset epileptic encephalopathy (Weckhuysen et al., 2012; Milh et al., 2015). The G290D substitution alters a conserved position predicted to be within the pore forming loop between the S5 and S6 transmembrane segments, and published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect (Orhan et al.,2014). The G290D variant is not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016; 1000 Genomes Consortium et al., 2015; Exome Variant Server). This variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. Additionally, missense variants in the same (G290S) and in nearby residues (R291S, A294V/G) have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with KCNQ2-related disorders (Stenson et al., 2014), supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Therefore, based on the currently available information, this variant is interpreted to be pathogenic, and its presence is consistent with the diagnosis in this patient. -
