Genes affected
KCNK3 (HGNC:6278): (potassium two pore domain channel subfamily K member 3) This gene encodes a member of the superfamily of potassium channel proteins that contain two pore-forming P domains. The encoded protein is an outwardly rectifying channel that is sensitive to changes in extracellular pH and is inhibited by extracellular acidification. Also referred to as an acid-sensitive potassium channel, it is activated by the anesthetics halothane and isoflurane. Although three transcripts are detected in northern blots, there is currently no sequence available to confirm transcript variants for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2008]

Significance:Uncertain significance

Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces threonine, which is neutral and polar, with alanine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 282 of the KCNK3 protein (p.Thr282Ala). This variant is present in population databases (rs779537390, gnomAD 0.04%). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNK3-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 575685). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt KCNK3 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.844A>G (p.T282A) alteration is located in exon 2 (coding exon 2) of the KCNK3 gene. This alteration results from a A to G substitution at nucleotide position 844, causing the threonine (T) at amino acid position 282 to be replaced by an alanine (A). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
