Genes affected

KCNE1 (HGNC:6240): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 1) The product of this gene belongs to the potassium channel KCNE family. Potassium ion channels are essential to many cellular functions and show a high degree of diversity, varying in their electrophysiologic and pharmacologic properties. This gene encodes a transmembrane protein known to associate with the product of the KVLQT1 gene to form the delayed rectifier potassium channel. Mutation in this gene are associated with both Jervell and Lange-Nielsen and Romano-Ward forms of long-QT syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Variant summary: KCNE1 c.95G>A (p.Arg32His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 5.3e-05 in 246544 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 5-folds higher than the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in KCNE1 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (1e-05), suggesting that the variant might be benign. c.95G>A has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Long QT Syndrome (LQTS) or referred for Arrhythmia genetic testing (Berge_2008, Hasemir_2015, Kapplinger_2009, Schulze-Bahr_2001, Splawski_2000), including one homozygous individual with a mild QTc prolongation (447 ms) (Stattin_2012). In one family the variant was found in co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant (SCN5A c.4931G>A (p.Arg1644His)), resulting in a variable penetrance ranging from severe to mild phenotypes (Westenskow_2004). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about an association of the variant with Arrhythmia. A functional study found that when the variant protein was co-expressed with the WT (to mimic heterozygosity), it did not affect gating, however it decreased the amplitude of the potassium channel current (IKs) to 78% of the WT (Westenskow_2004). Two ClinVar Submissions from other clinical diagnostic laboratories (evaluation after 2014) cite the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 32 of the KCNE1 protein (p.Arg32His). This variant is present in population databases (rs17857111, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KCNE1-related conditions (PMID: 10973849, 15051636, 18752142, 19716085, 23098067, 25998140, 26675252, 29032884). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 132683). 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) has been performed at Invitae for this missense variant, however the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on KCNE1 protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect KCNE1 function (PMID: 15051636). 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. -

The c.95G>A (p.R32H) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 1) of the KCNE1 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 95, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 32 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
