Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM2_SupportingPS3PS4PP3PP4
This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.1032G>A is a synonymous variant (p.Ala344=) predicted to affect KCNQ1 mRNA splicing. The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives scores of 0.49 for donor gain and 0.38 for donor loss, which are higher than the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP PP3 threshold of greater than or equal to 0.2 and predict that the variant disrupts KCNQ1 splicing (PP3). The variant is observed at an extremely low frequency in the population with a maximum allele frequency (gnomAD 4.1.0) of 0.000001701, with 2 in 1,175,668 individuals of European (non-Finnish) ancestry (PM2_Supporting). Functional studies have been performed on this variant and meet criteria with demonstrated deleterious effects on electrophysiology and RNA metabolism (PS3, PMID:29857160, 10477533, 17292394). There are 23 reported probands in the literature with a clinical diagnosis of Long QT syndrome (PS4; PMID:26118460, PMID:21810471, PMID:9654228, PMID:29497013, PMID:17292394). An additional case reports provides specific details that are highly specific for a diagnosis of Long QT syndrome in an individual with the variant who had a significantly prolonged QTc at rest and exercise-triggered events (PP4, PMID:21810471). In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as pathogenic for long QT syndrome 1 based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP: PS3, PS4, PM2_Supporting, PP3, and PP4. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 03/04/2025). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA005005/MONDO:0100316/112
