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]

This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the KCNQ2 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 174. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). Disruption of the initiator codon has been observed in individual(s) with benign familial neonatal seizures (PMID: 14985406). This variant disrupts a region of the KCNQ2 protein in which other variant(s) (p.Arg144Gln) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 23934111, 25740509). 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. -
