Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points: 8P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Moderate PP5

The NM_172107.4(KCNQ2):c.476G>T(p.Gly159Val) variant causes a missense change. 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 Likely pathogenic (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G159E) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 8 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 4 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 8 uncertain in NM_172107.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, KCNQ2
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.926
• PP5: Variant 20-63445276-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63445276-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 438297.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
