Genes affected
KCNE1 (HGNC:6240): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 1) The product of this gene belongs to the potassium channel KCNE family. Potassium ion channels are essential to many cellular functions and show a high degree of diversity, varying in their electrophysiologic and pharmacologic properties. This gene encodes a transmembrane protein known to associate with the product of the KVLQT1 gene to form the delayed rectifier potassium channel. Mutation in this gene are associated with both Jervell and Lange-Nielsen and Romano-Ward forms of long-QT syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

not provided Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 20, 2018The R32C variant has been observed in three of four relatives from a family with LQTS (McGorrian et al., 2013). Specific clinical details for the these family members were not provided, therefore, it was unclear which, if any, of these relatives carried a diagnosis of LQTS. Furthermore, one individual also harbored a reportedly de novo variant in the KCNH2 gene. This family includes one relative with a diagnosis of sudden arrhythmic death, though it was not clear whether this individual also had a diagnosis of LQTS or was included in those relatives from this family who received molecular analysis. The R32C variant has also been reported in one individual from a cohort of individuals not selected for a history of cardiomyopathy, arrhythmia or family history of sudden cardiac death who underwent exome sequencing (Ng et al., 2013); however, no follow-up cardiac evaluation was reported. The R32C variant is observed in 3/33580 (0.0089%) alleles from individuals of Latino background in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The R32C variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. However, in-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. We interpret the R32C variant as a variant of uncertain significance. -

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 22, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 32 of the KCNE1 protein (p.Arg32Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs200963514, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with sudden unexpected death (PMID: 23382499). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 191466). 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) has been performed at Invitae 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 KCNE1 protein function. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on KCNE1 function (PMID: 24314077). In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 06, 2022The p.R32C variant (also known as c.94C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNE1 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 94. The arginine at codon 32 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant was detected in family members of a sudden death case; however, clinical details were limited and a co-occurring KCNH2 variant was also reported in one individual (McGorrian C et al. Europace, 2013 Jul;15:1050-8). This alteration has also been reported as a secondary cardiac variant in an exome cohort; however, clinical details are limited (Ng D et al. Circ Cardiovasc Genet, 2013 Aug;6:337-46). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
