Genes affected
WNK1 (HGNC:14540): (WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 1) This gene encodes a member of the WNK subfamily of serine/threonine protein kinases. The encoded protein may be a key regulator of blood pressure by controlling the transport of sodium and chloride ions. Mutations in this gene have been associated with pseudohypoaldosteronism type II and hereditary sensory neuropathy type II. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described but the full-length nature of all of them has yet to be determined.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesJun 17, 2021The WNK1 c.1855A>G; p.Thr619Ala variant (rs149388376), to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 310741). This variant is found in the non-Finnish European population with an overall allele frequency of 0.13% (168/128,558 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The threonine at codon 619 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses predict that this variant is neutral (REVEL: 0.078). However, due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Thr619Ala variant is uncertain at this time. -
Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsMar 11, 2022The p.T619A variant (also known as c.1855A>G), located in coding exon 7 of the WNK1 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 1855. The threonine at codon 619 is replaced by alanine, an amino acid with similar properties. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and alanine is the reference amino acid in other vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 2C Benign:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaJan 13, 2018This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
