Genes affected

KCNJ2 (HGNC:6263): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 2) Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, probably participates in establishing action potential waveform and excitability of neuronal and muscle tissues. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Andersen syndrome, which is characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and dysmorphic features. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Uncertain_significance. Variant got 2 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product does not undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. Variant is located in the 3'-most exon, not predicted to undergo nonsense mediated mRNA decay. There are 14 pathogenic variants in the truncated region.
• PP5: Variant 17-70175721-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr17-70175721-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 403974.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• BS2: High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 6 AD gene.

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Arg228*) in the KCNJ2 gene. While this is not anticipated to result in nonsense mediated decay, it is expected to disrupt the last 200 amino acid(s) of the KCNJ2 protein. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.003%). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KCNJ2-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 403974). This variant disrupts a region of the KCNJ2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Ser369*) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 21493816). This suggests that this is a clinically significant region of the protein, and that variants that disrupt it are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
