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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health	Jan 11, 2024	This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 452 of the KCNQ1 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with cardiovascular disorders in the literature. This variant has been identified in 31/281090 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jan 02, 2024	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 452 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Arg452Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs145229963, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with KCNQ1-related conditions (PMID: 26318259). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67030). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt KCNQ1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Variant summary: KCNQ1 c.1355G>A (p.Arg452Gln) results in a 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 0.00011 in 283970 control chromosomes (gnomAD and publication data). The observed variant frequency is approximately 1.1 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in KCNQ1 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (0.0001), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.1355G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmia and long QT syndrome type 1 as well as in healthy controls (Kapa_2009, Ruwald_2016, Clemens_2018, Li_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Six ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

The c.1355G>A p.(Arg452Gln) missense variant identified in the KCNQ1 gene has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmia and long QT syndrome type 1 as well as in healthy controls (PMID: 19841300, 26318259, 29197658). The c.1355G>A variant has been deposited in ClinVar with conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity by multiple submitters, including ten Uncertain significance and one Likely benign entry [ClinVar ID: 67030]. The variant has an allele frequency of 0.0000951 (56 out of 588,570 heterozygous alleles, no homozygotes) in population databases (gnomAD v2.1.1 and v3.1.2,TOPMed Freeze 8). The c.1355G>A The c.1355G>A variant is located in exon 10 of this 16-exon gene and is predicted to replace a moderately conserved arginine residue with glutamine at position 452 of the encoded protein. In silico predictions are in favor of the variants damaging effect [REVEL = 0.644]; however, functional studies to support or refute these predictions have not been reported. Due to the lack of compelling evidence for its pathogenicity, the c.1355G>Ap.(Arg452Gln) missense variant identified in the KCNQ1 gene is reported as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

This variant has been identified in 31/281090 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD).

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. -
