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]

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as Pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Dominant negative, loss of function and gain of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene. Gain of function variants result exclusively in Short QT syndrome (MIM#609621), while dominant negative and loss of function variants can cause Long QT syndrome (LQTS, MIM#192500), atrial fibrillation (MIM#607554) and Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS, MIM#220400) (OMIM, PMIDs: 19632626, 28438721). (I) 0108 - This gene is known to be associated with both recessive and dominant disease. JLNS is characterized by congenital, bilateral deafness and variable degrees of QT prolongation, and is the only condition caused by biallelic variants (PMID: 28438721). (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (GeneReviews, OMIM). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from glycine to serine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated pore domain (UniProt). (I) 0702 - Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have strong previous evidence for pathogenicity. The p.(Gly314Asp) variant has been identified in three LQTS patients (PMIDs:15840476,19841300). The p.(Gly314Cys) and p.(Gly314Arg) variants have both been identified in one LQTS patient each (PMIDs: 19716085, 15840476). (SP) 0801 - This variant has strong previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. This variant has been reported in at least 15 LQTS patients (PMIDs: 19716085, 22659597, 22727609, 15840476, ClinVar, VCGS). (SP) 1002 - Moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Patch clamp analysis indicates that this variant reduces channel current in a dominant negative manner (PMID: 19348785). However, patch clamp assays have been shown to be unreliable, therefore results from these studies are used with caution during variant classification. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 314 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Gly314Ser). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 8872472, 9799083, 16922724, 22727609, 22949429). This variant is also known as G185S. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 3123). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt KCNQ1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ1 function (PMID: 9312006, 15051636, 19348785). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as it failed to produce functional homomeric channels, and reduced the K+ current when co-expressed with the wild-type subunit (PMID: 30571187, 9312006); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 10973849, 25554238, 9799083, 34505893, 34860437, 32048431, 22949429, 9312006, 9693036, 15234419, 15840476, 16038262, 17470695, 19348785, 19716085, 27041150, 27251404, 27041096, 15051636, 9386136, 8872472, 10220144, 12566525, 15028050, 16922724, 19841300, 22581653, 31737537, 32797034, 31493592, 30571187) -

The KCNQ1 c.940G>A; p.Gly314Ser variant (rs120074184, ClinVar Variation ID: 189773), is reported in the literature in multiple individuals affected with Long QT syndrome (Akgun-Dogan 2022, Giudicessi 2012). This variant is absent from the Genome Aggregation Database (v2.1.1), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. Functional analyses of the variant protein show significantly reduced current density (Chouabe 1997, Westenskow 2004). Computational analyses predict that this variant is deleterious (REVEL: 0.969). Based on available information, this variant is considered to be pathogenic. REFERENCES Akgun-Dogan O et al.

The p.G314S pathogenic mutation (also known as c.940G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the KCNQ1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 940. The glycine at codon 314 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with similar properties. This alteration impacts the highly conserved ion selectivity filter (TIGYGD) located between transmembrane helices S5 and S6. This variant has been identified in multiple patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS) and was reported to co-segregate with disease in several families (Russell MW et al. Hum. Mol. Genet. 1996;5:1319-24; Donger C et al. Circulation. 1997;96:2778-81; Kobori A et al. J. Cardiovasc. Electrophysiol. 2004;15:190-9; Kapa S et al. Circulation. 2009;120:1752-60; Hofman N et al. Neth Heart J. 2011;19:10-16). Functional studies suggest this mutation causes significantly reduced current density in heterologous expression studies (Chouabe C et al. EMBO J. 1997;16:5472-9; Westenskow P et al. Circulation. 2004;109:1834-41). In addition, internal structural analysis indicates that this variant disrupts the ion channel pore and is expected to eliminate the K+ selectivity of the K+ channel (Tao X et al. Science. 2009;326(5960):1668-74; Whorton MR and MacKinnon R. Cell. 2011;147(1):199-208; Ambry internal data). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
