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]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 21) in uniprot entity KCNQ1_HUMAN there are 12 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (92%) in NM_000218.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.984
• PP5: Variant 11-2527942-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2527942-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 67070.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=2, Pathogenic=1, not_provided=1}. Variant chr11-2527942-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 134 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Leu134Pro). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KCNQ1-related conditions (PMID: 19716085). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67070). 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 KCNQ1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ1 function (PMID: 29532034, 30571187). 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. -

This missense change is denoted Leu134Pro (aka L134P) at the protein level and c.401 T>C at the cDNA level. The Leu134Pro mutation in the KCNQ1 gene has been previously published in a single individual referred for LQTS testing and was absent from more than 2600 control alleles (Kapplinger et al., 2009). Leu134Pro results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a non-polar Leucine with a non-polar, sterically-constrained Proline at a residue that is located in the highly conserved transmembrane domain of the protein. In silico analysis predicts Leu134Pro is probably damaging to protein structure/function (Adzhubei IA et al., 2010, Schwarz JM et al., 2010). Nearby mutations (Ile132Leu, Val133Ile, Cys136Phe, Leu137Phe) have been reported in association with LQTS further supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. In addition, Leu134Pro in the KCNQ1 gene was not present in 200 control alleles from individuals of African American ancestry tested at GeneDx indicating it is likely not a common, benign variant in this population. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -
