Genes affected
KCNJ8 (HGNC:6269): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 8) 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, is controlled by G-proteins. Defects in this gene may be a cause of J-wave syndromes and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). [provided by RefSeq, May 2012]

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

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 118 of the KCNJ8 protein (p.Thr118Ile). This variant is present in population databases (rs770087869, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNJ8-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 431368). 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 KCNJ8 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. 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. -

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

The c.353C>T (p.T118I) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 1) of the KCNJ8 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 353, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 118 to be replaced by an isoleucine (I). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
