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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 13 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 14 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
• PP2: Missense variant where missense usually causes diseases, KCNQ2
• PP5: Variant 20-63442444-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr20-63442444-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 495248.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. 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. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 495248). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (PMID: 31780880). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. This sequence change replaces histidine, which is basic and polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 260 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.His260Tyr). -
