Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PVS1PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.200_210delCGGCCGCGCCC​(p.Pro67ArgfsTer214) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. It is difficult to determine the true allele frequency of this variant because it is of type DEL_BIG, and the frequency of such variant types in population databases may be underestimated and unreliable. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]

Review Status:no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method:clinical testing

The KCNQ1 c.200_210del11 variant is predicted to result in a frameshift and premature protein termination (p.Pro67Argfs*214). This variant has been reported to be causative for long QT syndrome (described as 200_210delCGGCCGCGCCC (S66fs+213X) in Table S1, Kapplinger et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19716085). This variant has not been reported in a large population database, indicating this variant is rare. Frameshift variants in KCNQ1 are expected to be pathogenic. This variant is interpreted as pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change creates a premature translational stop signal (p.Pro67Argfs*214) in the KCNQ1 gene. It is expected to result in an absent or disrupted protein product. Loss-of-function variants in KCNQ1 are known to be pathogenic (PMID: 9323054, 19862833). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This premature translational stop signal has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 449221). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.200_210del11 pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 1 of the KCNQ1 gene, results from a deletion of 11 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 200 to 210, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.P67Rfs*214). This variant (also described as S66fs+213X) was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with long QT syndrome (Kapplinger JD et al. Heart Rhythm, 2009 Sep;6:1297-303; Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). This alteration is expected to result in loss of function by premature protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. As such, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
