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]

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with proline, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 187 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Leu187Pro). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473399, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 18808722, 23631430). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53066). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on KCNQ1 protein function. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on KCNQ1 function (PMID: 30571187, 32797034). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Identified in an individual suspected of having long QT syndrome, however specific clinical information was not provided (PMID: 23631430); Identified in several individuals with long QT syndrome in a large family, however the variant was also seen in several family members with an uncertain long QT syndrome diagnosis and in one unaffected family member making it unclear if the variant is segregating with disease in the family (PMID: 18808722); Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 30571187, 23631430, 18808722) -

Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.560T>C (p.L187P) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 3) of the KCNQ1 gene. This alteration results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 560, causing the leucine (L) at amino acid position 187 to be replaced by a proline (P). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
