Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 23P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.1772G>A​(p.Arg591His) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000137 in 1,461,352 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000234528: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as R591H causes a reduction in potassium ion current due to a reduction in the number of functional voltage-gated potassium channels in the cell membrane (Kanki et al., 2004" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R591L) has been classified as Likely pathogenic. The gene KCNQ1 is included in the ClinGen Criteria Specification Registry.

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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000234528: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as R591H causes a reduction in potassium ion current due to a reduction in the number of functional voltage-gated potassium channels in the cell membrane (Kanki et al., 2004; Grunnet et al., 2005; Xu et al., 2009); SCV001589930: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ1 function (PMID: 16253915, 20662986).; SCV002711855: "In multiple assays testing KCNQ1 function, this variant showed functionally abnormal results (Grunnet M et al. Heart Rhythm, 2005 Nov;2:1238-49; Horr S et al. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, 2011 Feb;22:193-200; David JP et al. Traffic, 2013 Apr;14:399-411)."
PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 13 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 17 uncertain in NM_000218.3
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
