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]

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxApr 22, 2022Identified in unrelated patients with clinical features consistent with a KCNQ2-related disorder referred for genetic testing at GeneDx and in patients with neonatal-onset seizures in the published literature (Zara et al., 2013; Panjan et al., 2021; Amore et al., 2022); Missense variants in this gene are often considered pathogenic (HGMD); In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; Not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 28717674, 29655203, 34474328, 35401395, 29455050, 23360469, 27602407) -

Early infantile epileptic encephalopathy with suppression bursts Pathogenic:1
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 02, 2023This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 547 of the KCNQ2 protein (p.Arg547Trp). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with benign familial neonatal-infantile seizures (PMID: 23360469, 29655203; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 205912). 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. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
