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]

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. This sequence change affects the initiator methionine of the KCNE3 mRNA. The next in-frame methionine is located at codon 59. This variant is present in population databases (rs765329541, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNE3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 402994). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The p.M1? variant (also known as c.2T>C) is located in coding exon 1 of the KCNE3 gene and results from a T to C substitution at nucleotide position 2. This alters the methionine residue at the initiation codon. Variations that modify the initiation codon (ATG) are expected to result in either loss of translation initiation, N-terminal truncation, or cause a shift in the mRNA reading frame; however, loss of function of KCNE3 has not been clearly established as a mechanism of disease. The evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited; therefore, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -
