Genes affected

KCNJ3 (HGNC:6264): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 3) Potassium channels are present in most mammalian cells, where they participate in a wide range of physiologic responses. The protein encoded by this gene is an integral membrane protein and inward-rectifier type potassium channel. The encoded protein, which has a greater tendency to allow potassium to flow into a cell rather than out of a cell, is controlled by G-proteins and plays an important role in regulating heartbeat. It associates with three other G-protein-activated potassium channels to form a heteromultimeric pore-forming complex that also couples to neurotransmitter receptors in the brain and whereby channel activation can inhibit action potential firing by hyperpolarizing the plasma membrane. These multimeric G-protein-gated inwardly-rectifying potassium (GIRK) channels may play a role in the pathophysiology of epilepsy, addiction, Down's syndrome, ataxia, and Parkinson's disease. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins. [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -12 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.9).
• BS1: Variant frequency is greater than expected in population sas. gnomad4 allele frequency = 0.0123 (1867/152184) while in subpopulation SAS AF= 0.0261 (126/4824). AF 95% confidence interval is 0.0224. There are 12 homozygotes in gnomad4. There are 954 alleles in male gnomad4 subpopulation. Median coverage is 31. This position pass quality control queck.
• BS2: High Homozygotes in GnomAd at 12 AR gene
