Genes affected

KCNE2 (HGNC:6242): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 2) Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, isk-related subfamily. This member is a small integral membrane subunit that assembles with the KCNH2 gene product, a pore-forming protein, to alter its function. This gene is expressed in heart and muscle and the gene mutations are associated with cardiac arrhythmia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

The p.Q9* variant (also known as c.25C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNE2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 25. This changes the amino acid from a glutamine to a stop codon within coding exon 1. This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. However, loss of function of KCNE2 has not been clearly established as a mechanism of disease. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
