KCNQ2-related disorder Pathogenic:1
The c.997C>T (p.Arg333Trp) variant affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. This variant has been previously reported as a de novo and heterozygous change in patients with early onset epileptic encephalopathies (PMID: 16039833, 23621294, 23692823, 30182498, 31440721, 32593896). The c.997C>T (p.Arg333Trp) variant is located in a mutational hotspot for pathogenic variations associated with KCNQ2-related disorders (PMID: 30008368). A different amino acid change at the same residue, KCNQ2 c.998G>A (p.Arg333Gln), has been previously reported in individuals with benign neonatal seizures (PMID: 14534157, 29215089, 31152295, 31832524, 33897753). Functional studies indicate that the p.Arg333Trp variant reduced axonal surface expression of potassium voltage-gated channels, reduced the sensitivity of the channels to phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) stimulation, and disrupted the ability to inhibit excitability in hippocampal neurons (PMID: 30008368). The c.997C>T (p.Arg333Trp) variant is absent from the gnomAD population database and thus is presumed to be rare. Analysis of the parental samples was negative for the variant, indicating this variant likely occurred as a de novo event. Based on the available evidence, c.997C>T (p.Arg333Trp) is classified as Pathogenic. -
Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 333 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Arg333Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with neonatal seizures (PMID: 16039833, 23621294, 23692823). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 21809). 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 KCNQ2 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
