Genes affected
KCNJ11 (HGNC:6257): (potassium inwardly rectifying channel subfamily J member 11) 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 and is found associated with the sulfonylurea receptor SUR. Mutations in this gene are a cause of familial persistent hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia of infancy (PHHI), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by unregulated insulin secretion. Defects in this gene may also contribute to autosomal dominant non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus type II (NIDDM), transient neonatal diabetes mellitus type 3 (TNDM3), and permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM). Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants that encode different protein isoforms have been described for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]

Variant summary: KCNJ11 c.1040G>A (p.Arg347His) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the inward rectifier potassium channel, C-terminal domain (IPR041647) of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 2.4e-05 in 251414 control chromosomes, found exclusively within the Non-Finnish European subpopulation at a frequency of 5.3e-05 in the gnomAD database. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.1040G>A has been reported in the literature as a VUS in settings of multigene testing in an individual affected with congenital hyperinsulinism and in an individual suspected of monogenic diabetes with a positive family history (Kapoor_2013, Donath_2019). These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with congenital hyperinsulinism or monogenic diabetes. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. Seven clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -

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

The c.1040G>A (p.R347H) alteration is located in exon 1 (coding exon 1) of the KCNJ11 gene. This alteration results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1040, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 347 to be replaced by a histidine (H). Based on data from gnomAD, the A allele has an overall frequency of <0.01% (6/251414) total alleles studied. The highest observed frequency was 0.01% (6/113716) of European (non-Finnish) alleles. This amino acid position is not well conserved in available vertebrate species. This alteration is predicted to be tolerated by in silico analysis. Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Mutations in KCNJ11 gene can cause decreased production and secretion of insulin. This can lead to MODY which may be responsive to oral sulfonylureas. It is also associated with Neonatal Diabetes. However, no sufficient evidence is found to ascertain the role of this particular variant (rs771797701) in MODY yet. -

Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -
