Genes affected
KCNE1 (HGNC:6240): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 1) The product of this gene belongs to the potassium channel KCNE family. Potassium ion channels are essential to many cellular functions and show a high degree of diversity, varying in their electrophysiologic and pharmacologic properties. This gene encodes a transmembrane protein known to associate with the product of the KVLQT1 gene to form the delayed rectifier potassium channel. Mutation in this gene are associated with both Jervell and Lange-Nielsen and Romano-Ward forms of long-QT syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: KCNE1 c.29C>T (p.Thr10Met) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00021 in 251218 control chromosomes, predominantly at a frequency of 0.00059 within the South Asian subpopulation in the gnomAD database. The observed variant frequency within South Asian control individuals in the gnomAD database is approximately 283 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in KCNE1 causing Long QT Syndrome phenotype (2.1e-06). To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating its impact on protein function have been reported. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 132677). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as likely benign. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: no assertion criteria provided
Collection Method: clinical testing

The KCNE1 c.29C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Thr10Met. This variant was reported in multiple individuals with long QT syndrome although in some studies it was reported as likely benign (Table S4, Kapplinger et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19716085; Table S2, Di Resta et al. 2015. PubMed ID: 26220970; Table S4, Kaltman et al. 2017. PubMed ID: 28988457; Table S3, Roberts et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 31941373). This variant is reported in 0.059% of alleles in individuals of South Asian descent in gnomAD. This variant has conflicting interpretations in ClinVar of uncertain and likely benign (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/132677/). While we suspect this variant may be benign, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -

Apr 27, 2017
Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). No publications were found based on this search. Allele frequency data from public databases allowed determination this variant is unlikely to cause disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as likely benign. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Apr 04, 2022
Ambry Genetics
Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
