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]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Likely_benign. The variant received -1 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 11 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 11 uncertain in NM_000891.3
PP2
Missense variant in the KCNJ2 gene, where missense mutations are typically associated with disease (based on misZ statistic). The gene has 51 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 2 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 2.7459 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 3.9347 (above the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to short QT syndrome type 3, short QT syndrome, Andersen-Tawil syndrome, familial atrial fibrillation, catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia, long QT syndrome.
BS2
High AC in GnomAdExome4 at 7 AD gene.
