Genes affected
KCNJ8 (HGNC:6269): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 8) Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins. Defects in this gene may be a cause of J-wave syndromes and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]

Submissions by phenotype

Brugada syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 03, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 274 of the KCNJ8 protein (p.Arg274His). This variant is present in population databases (rs149127157, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with KCNJ8-related conditions (PMID: 30847666). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 216600). 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 KCNJ8 protein function. 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsNov 09, 2021The p.R274H variant (also known as c.821G>A), located in coding exon 2 of the KCNJ8 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 821. The arginine at codon 274 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. The evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited; therefore, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -
