Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPS4_ModeratePP1_StrongPS3_SupportingPP3PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.760G>A (p.Val254Met)‌ is a missense variant in KCNQ1 predicted to replace valine with methionine at amino acid 254. This variant is absent from gnomAD v4.1.0 (PM2_Supporting). This variant has been reported in affected probands exhibiting QTc prolongation above 480 milliseconds and an exercise-associated event, which together are highly specific for long QT syndrome 1 (PP4, PMID:29439887). This variant has been reported in at least 4 additional probands affected with long QT syndrome 1 (PS4_Moderate; PMID:29439887). The variant segregates with long QT syndrome through 10 affected family members of the 5 probands confirmed to be similarly affected by exhibiting QTc prolongation above 480 milliseconds and/or syncope and/or Schwartz score above 3.5 (PP1_Strong, PMID:29439887). An additional family has been reported but has not been described in sufficient detail to be considered for family segregation (PMID:8528244). The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.918, which is above the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP PP3 threshold of >0.75 and predicts a damaging effect on KCNQ1 function (PP3). The variant has been shown to disrupt KCNQ1 function in two required experimental assays, both of them manual patch-clamp studies reporting a dominant negative electrophysiological defect (PS3_Supporting; PMID:10376919, PMID:14756674). In summary, this variant meets the criterion to be classified as pathogenic for long QT syndrome 1, as specified by the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP; PS3_Supporting, PS4_Moderate PM2_Supporting, PP1_Strong, PP3, PP4. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 03/04/2025). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA008122/MONDO:0100316/112

Genes affected
KCNQ1 (HGNC:6294): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1) This gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel required for repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential. This protein can form heteromultimers with two other potassium channel proteins, KCNE1 and KCNE3. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary long QT syndrome 1 (also known as Romano-Ward syndrome), Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, and familial atrial fibrillation. This gene exhibits tissue-specific imprinting, with preferential expression from the maternal allele in some tissues, and biallelic expression in others. This gene is located in a region of chromosome 11 amongst other imprinted genes that are associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), and itself has been shown to be disrupted by chromosomal rearrangements in patients with BWS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
