Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.1045T>C​(p.Ser349Pro) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S349W) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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 Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a helix (size 19) in uniprot entity KCNQ1_HUMAN there are 35 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000218.3
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr11-2585225-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.989
• PP5: Variant 11-2585224-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2585224-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 52941.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars. Variant chr11-2585224-T-C is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

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. A different missense substitution at this codon (p.Ser349Trp) has been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10973849, 20662986, 22539601). This suggests that the serine residue is critical for KCNQ1 protein function and that other missense substitutions at this position may also be pathogenic. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has been reported in individuals affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 16414944). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 52941). This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces serine with proline at codon 349 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Ser349Pro). The serine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between serine and proline. -
