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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
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 seizures, benign familial neonatal, 1, neonatal-onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures, benign neonatal seizures, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, neonatal encephalopathy with non-epileptic myoclonus, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, seizures, benign familial neonatal, 2, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 7, benign familial infantile epilepsy.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.938
PP5
Variant 20-63413481-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63413481-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 369807.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr20-63413481-T-C is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 578 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Met578Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with KCNQ2-related conditions (PMID: 25982755). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 369807). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ2 function (PMID: 35104249). This variant disrupts the p.Met578 amino acid residue in KCNQ2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 24371303). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
