Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_Strong
The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.899C>A(p.Ala300Glu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000205 in 1,461,382 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A300G) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

This sequence change replaces alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 300 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Ala300Glu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome and/or long QT syndrome (Invitae). In at least one individual the data is consistent with being in trans (on the opposite chromosome) from a pathogenic variant. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405257). 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 expected to disrupt KCNQ1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. This variant disrupts the p.Ala300 amino acid residue in KCNQ1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with KCNQ1-related conditions (PMID: 9641694, 11087258, 27251404, 28600177, 30571187, 33693037; Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
The c.899C>A (p.A300E) alteration is located in exon 6 (coding exon 6) of the KCNQ1 gene. This alteration results from a C to A substitution at nucleotide position 899, causing the alanine (A) at amino acid position 300 to be replaced by a glutamic acid (E). This variant was not reported in population-based cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with long QT syndrome (Webster, 2021; Schwartz, 2021; external communication). This variant has been identified in the homozygous state and/or in conjunction with other KCNQ1 variant(s) in individual(s) with features consistent with long QT syndrome; in at least one instance, the variants were identified in trans (external communication). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the available evidence, this alteration is classified as likely pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Variant summary: KCNQ1 c.899C>A (p.Ala300Glu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Ion transport domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant was absent in 249898 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.899C>A has been reported in the literature in individuals suspected of long QT syndrome type 1 (example: Schwartz_2021) . To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. The following publication has been ascertained in the context of this evaluation (PMID: 34505893). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405257). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly pathogenic. -
Atrial fibrillation, familial, 3;C1865019:Short QT syndrome type 2;C4551509:Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 1;C4551647:Long QT syndrome 1 Uncertain:1
KCNQ1 NM_000218.2 exon 6 p.Ala300Glu (c.899C>A): This variant has not been reported in the literature and is not present in large control databases. This variant is present in ClinVar (Variation ID:405257). Evolutionary conservation and computational predictive tools suggest that this variant may impact the protein. In summary, data on this variant is insufficient for disease classification. Therefore, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -
