Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.686G>A(p.Gly229Asp) variant causes a missense, splice region change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,459,792 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 1/1 splice prediction tools predict no significant impact on normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★).

KCNQ1-related disorder Pathogenic:1
This variant has been previously reported in multiple unrelated individuals with features of KCNQ1-related disorders including early-onset atrial fibrillation, borderline QT prolongation, and sudden cardiac death (PMID: 24096004, 30967788, 34076677). Functional analyses including patch-clamp studies support a gain-of-function, arrhythmogenic effect for the c.686G>A (p.Gly229Asp) variant (PMID: 24096004, 30967788). This variant is absent from the gnomAD population database and thus is presumed to be rare. It affects a highly conserved amino acid and is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function. Based on the available evidence, c.686G>A (p.Gly229Asp) is classified as Pathogenic. -
not provided Pathogenic:1
p.Gly229Asp (GGC>GAC): c.686 G>A in exon 5 of the KCNQ1 gene (NM_000218.2). The Gly229Asp variant in the KCNQ1 gene has been reported in one individual with arrythmia and it was absent from 190 Caucasian control individuals (Ueda K et al., 2009). Additionally, the NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Gly229Asp was not observed in approximately 6,500 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Mutations in nearby residues (Ser225Leu, Ala226Val, Arg231Cys, Arg231His) have been reported in association with LQTS, further supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. In summary, Gly229Asp in the KCNQ1 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -
Long QT syndrome Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with aspartic acid, which is acidic and polar, at codon 229 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Gly229Asp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with atrial fibrillation, long QT syndrome, and/or unexplained sudden cardiac death (PMID: 19165230, 24096004, 30967788, 34076677; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53085). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ1 function (PMID: 24096004, 30967788, 33600800). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
Congenital long QT syndrome Other:1
This variant has been reported as associated with Long QT syndrome in the following publications (PMID:19165230). This is a literature report, and does not necessarily reflect the clinical interpretation of the Imperial College / Royal Brompton Cardiovascular Genetics laboratory. -
