Genes affected
KCNT1 (HGNC:18865): (potassium sodium-activated channel subfamily T member 1) Potassium 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 sodium-activated potassium channel subunit which is thought to function in ion conductance and developmental signaling pathways. Mutations in this gene cause the early-onset epileptic disorders, malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy and autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2012]

This variant, c.2061_2066del, results in the deletion of 2 amino acid(s) of the KCNT1 protein (p.Gly691_Gly692del), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (rs754629346, gnomAD 0.007%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with frontal lobe epilepsy (PMID: 32086284). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 473368). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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 KCNT1 c.2061_2066del6 variant is predicted to result in an in-frame deletion (p.Gly691_Gly692del). This variant was reported in an individual with frontal lobe epilepsy (Krenn et al 2020. PubMed ID: 32086284). This variant is reported in 0.0092% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/9-138664610-CGGCGGT-C). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
