Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PVS1 PM2 PP5

The NM_172107.4(KCNQ2):c.1684_1685insGCCCT(p.Tyr562CysfsTer5) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. Y562Y) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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 Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 20-63413528-T-TAGGGC is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63413528-T-TAGGGC is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 375002.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 stars.
