Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points: 15P and 0B. PS3PM2PP3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.387-5T>A variant causes a splice region, intron change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000205 in 1,461,534 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 3/3 splice prediction tools predicting alterations to normal splicing. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000543292: Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 2 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID:19027783)." and additional evidence is available in ClinVar.

Genes affected
KCNQ1 (HGNC:6294): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily Q member 1) This gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel required for repolarization phase of the cardiac action potential. This protein can form heteromultimers with two other potassium channel proteins, KCNE1 and KCNE3. Mutations in this gene are associated with hereditary long QT syndrome 1 (also known as Romano-Ward syndrome), Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, and familial atrial fibrillation. This gene exhibits tissue-specific imprinting, with preferential expression from the maternal allele in some tissues, and biallelic expression in others. This gene is located in a region of chromosome 11 amongst other imprinted genes that are associated with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS), and itself has been shown to be disrupted by chromosomal rearrangements in patients with BWS. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2011]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 15 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000543292: Studies have shown that this variant results in skipping of exon 2 and introduces a premature termination codon (PMID: 19027783).; SCV002103404: At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (example, Bhuiyan_2008). The most pronounced variant effect results in non-functional mutant KCNQ1 + KCNE1 channels as determined by electrophysiological studies in a HEK-293 cell expression system.; SCV004840101: RNA studies have shown that this variant causes the skipping of exon 2 and introduces a premature termination codon, resulting in incomplete transcriptional aberration of the KCNQ1 gene (PMID: 19027783).
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: dbscSNV1_ADA, dbscSNV1_RF, max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 11-2527923-T-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr11-2527923-T-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 200872.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
