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]

Long QT syndrome Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 28, 2023This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 74 of the KCNE1 protein (p.Ser74Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs74315446, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 9354802, 31941373; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 13478). 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) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is expected to disrupt KCNE1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies are conflicting or provide insufficient evidence to determine the effect of this variant on KCNE1 function (PMID: 9354802, 9834138, 19008479, 19907016, 32058015). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineApr 29, 2016Variant classified as Uncertain Significance - Favor Pathogenic. The p.Ser74Leu variant in KCNE1 has been previously reported in one individual with long-QT syn drome and reportedly segregated in two family members with elevated QTc interval s who did not display overt symptoms (Splawski 1997, Westenskow 2004). This vari ant has been identified in 2/66630 European chromosomes by the Exome Aggregation Consortium (ExAC, http://exac.broadinstitute.org; dbSNP rs74315446). Computatio nal prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that this variant may imp act the protein. In addition, in vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Ser74Leu variant may have a mild effect on the normal function of the protein (Harmer 2010, McCrossan 2009, Sesti 1998). However, these types of assa ys may not accurately represent biological function. In summary, while there is some suspicion for a pathogenic role based on the reported family and in vitro s tudies, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsAug 15, 2018The c.221C>T (p.S74L) alteration is located in exon 3 (coding exon 1) of the KCNE1 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 221, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 74 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
