Genes affected

KCNQ2 (HGNC:6296): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 2) The M channel is a slowly activating and deactivating potassium channel that plays a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability. The M channel is formed by the association of the protein encoded by this gene and a related protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene, both integral membrane proteins. M channel currents are inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. Defects in this gene are a cause of benign familial neonatal convulsions type 1 (BFNC), also known as epilepsy, benign neonatal type 1 (EBN1). At least five transcript variants encoding five different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

ACMG classification

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 21 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_172107.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr20-63413546-T-C is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 2749889.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the KCNQ2 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 319 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 78 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 4.0411 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.6968 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to benign familial infantile epilepsy, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy, developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 7, benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures, benign neonatal seizures, neonatal-onset developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, complex neurodevelopmental disorder, seizures, benign familial neonatal, 2, seizures, benign familial neonatal, 1, neonatal encephalopathy with non-epileptic myoclonus.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.925
• PP5: Variant 20-63413547-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63413547-T-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 205914.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces lysine, which is basic and polar, with glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 556 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Lys556Glu). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with neonatal epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 24107868). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205914). 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 expected to disrupt KCNQ2 protein function. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
