Genes affected
KCNQ2 (HGNC:6296): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 2) The M channel is a slowly activating and deactivating potassium channel that plays a critical role in the regulation of neuronal excitability. The M channel is formed by the association of the protein encoded by this gene and a related protein encoded by the KCNQ3 gene, both integral membrane proteins. M channel currents are inhibited by M1 muscarinic acetylcholine receptors and activated by retigabine, a novel anti-convulsant drug. Defects in this gene are a cause of benign familial neonatal convulsions type 1 (BFNC), also known as epilepsy, benign neonatal type 1 (EBN1). At least five transcript variants encoding five different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Inborn genetic diseases Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsSep 29, 2023The c.1955C>T (p.P652L) alteration is located in exon 17 (coding exon 17) of the KCNQ2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1955, causing the proline (P) at amino acid position 652 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeNov 27, 2023This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 652 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Pro652Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs770730662, gnomAD 0.004%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNQ2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205951). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. 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. -
Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy, 7 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingNew York Genome CenterMay 14, 2021The inherited missense heterozygous variant c.1901C>T, p.Pro634Leu identified in KCNQ2 has not been reported in the literature. This variant has been reported as heterozygous in six individuals in the gnomAD v3.1 database, indicating this is a rare allele. In silico tools predict conflicting interpretation of pathogenicity. Based on the available evidence, the variant c.1901C>T, p.Pro634Leu in the KCNQ2 gene is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
