Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Moderate

The NM_172107.4(KCNQ2):​c.1655A>G​(p.Lys552Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000685 in 1,460,878 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. K552T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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: Likely_pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 24 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 9 uncertain in NM_172107.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• 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, 0.887
