Genes affected
KCNJ2 (HGNC:6263): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 2) 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, probably participates in establishing action potential waveform and excitability of neuronal and muscle tissues. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Andersen syndrome, which is characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and dysmorphic features. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 318 of the KCNJ2 protein (p.Asn318Ser). This variant is present in population databases (rs367560052, gnomAD 0.009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 23644778). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161257). 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) indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt KCNJ2 protein function with a negative predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNJ2 function (PMID: 23644778). 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. -

The p.N318S variant (also known as c.953A>G), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNJ2 gene, results from an A to G substitution at nucleotide position 953. The asparagine at codon 318 is replaced by serine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was identified in an individual with ventricular fibrillation (Limberg MM et al. Basic Res. Cardiol., 2013 May;108:353). In addition, this variant has been reported in a hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Lopes LR et al. Heart, 2015 Feb;101:294-301). This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species, and serine is the reference amino acid in other 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. -
