Variant summary

Our verdict is Benign. The variant received -8 ACMG points: 0P and 8B. BA1

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.1927G>A is a missense variant predicted to cause substitution of glycine by serine at amino acid 643 (p.Gly643Ser). This variant is present in gnomAD v.4.1.0 at a maximum allele frequency of 0.04778, with 2,047 alleles / 42,844 total alleles and 53 homozygotes in the East Asian population, which is higher than the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP BA1 threshold of >0.004 (BA1). This variant has been identified in individuals with LQTc interval including 3 who had QTc interval over 480ms, as well as an individual with sudden unexplained death, however their phenotypes do not meet criteria for being highly specific to LQTS (PMID 15028050; PMID:26385840). The variant is seen frequently in control individuals vs cases (PMID:26159999; PMID:18426444). From in-vitro studies, this variant is thought to have a weak dominant-negative effect without much alteration to its kinetic properties (PMID:11761407; PMID:22378279). This variant is thought to be a risk factor/predisposition to arrhythmias or acquired LQTS, but is not thought to be a risk factor for congenital LQTS. The computational predictor REVEL gives a score of 0.566, which is below the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP PP3 threshold of >0.75 but higher than the BP4 threshold of <0.25 and does not strongly predict a damaging effect on KCNQ1 function. The computational splicing predictor SpliceAI gives a score of 0.00, which is lower than the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmia VCEP PP3 threshold of >0.2 and does not strongly predict a damaging effect on KCNQ1 splicing. In summary, this variant meets the criteria to be classified as benign for long QT syndrome 1 based on the ACMG/AMP criteria applied, as specified by the ClinGen Potassium Channel Arrhythmias VCEP: BA1. (VCEP specifications version 1.0.0; date of approval 03/04/2025). LINK:https://erepo.genome.network/evrepo/ui/classification/CA006598/MONDO:0100316/112

Genes affected
KCNQ1 (HGNC:6294): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1) This gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel required for repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential. This protein can form heteromultimers with two other potassium channel proteins, KCNE1 and KCNE3. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary long QT syndrome 1 (also known as Romano-Ward syndrome), Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, and familial atrial fibrillation. This gene exhibits tissue-specific imprinting, with preferential expression from the maternal allele in some tissues, and biallelic expression in others. This gene is located in a region of chromosome 11 amongst other imprinted genes that are associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), and itself has been shown to be disrupted by chromosomal rearrangements in patients with BWS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]
