Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):c.1771C>T(p.Arg591Cys) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000684 in 1,461,422 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R591H) has been classified as Pathogenic.

Long QT syndrome Pathogenic:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp | Oct 27, 2023 | This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 591 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Arg591Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473483, gnomAD 0.006%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 17470695, 19716085, 22429796, 22727609, 22949429). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53016). 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%. This variant disrupts the p.Arg591 amino acid residue in KCNQ1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 10024302, 16253915, 19261104, 21482651, 22949429). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. - |
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health | Aug 01, 2024 | This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 591 of the KCNQ1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant is found within a highly conserved region at C-terminus (a.a. 509-575). Rare non-truncating variants in this region have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 32893267). A functional study using Xenopus oocytes has shown that this variant causes a significant decrease in current amplitudes compared to wildtype KCNQ1 channels (PMID: 36674868). This variant has been reported in at least 7 unrelated individuals affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 22429796, 22727609, 26318259, 31520628, 36674868), in a few individuals suspected of having long QT syndrome (PMID:19716085, 23631430, 26743238), and in several individuals affected with sudden death (PMID: 17470695). This variant has been identified in 1/251012 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). A different variant occurring at the same codon, Arg591His, is known to be pathogenic (ClinVar variation ID 53017), indicating that arginine at this position is important for KCNQ1 protein function. Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. - |
