Genes affected
KCNE3 (HGNC:6243): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 3) Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, isk-related subfamily. This member is a type I membrane protein, and a beta subunit that assembles with a potassium channel alpha-subunit to modulate the gating kinetics and enhance stability of the multimeric complex. This gene is prominently expressed in the kidney. A missense mutation in this gene is associated with hypokalemic periodic paralysis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Submissions by phenotype

Brugada syndrome 6 Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJun 16, 2022This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 39 of the KCNE3 protein (p.Pro39Arg). This variant is present in population databases (rs34604640, gnomAD 0.02%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 19306396). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 582464). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect KCNE3 function (PMID: 19306396). 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 Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 01, 2022This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
