Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points: 3P and 2B. PM2 PP2 BP4_Moderate

The NM_000218.3(KCNQ1):​c.1205G>A​(p.Ser402Asn) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,620 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a benign outcome for this variant. 14/23 in silico tools predict a benign outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. S402T) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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

Our verdict: Uncertain_significance. The variant received 1 ACMG points.

• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 212 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 12 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 1.8321 (below the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 0.90233 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to short QT syndrome type 2, long QT syndrome 1, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome 1, long QT syndrome, short QT syndrome, Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, familial atrial fibrillation, atrial fibrillation, familial, 3.
• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.105181426).

This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 402 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Ser402Asn). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KCNQ1-related conditions (PMID: 29247119). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 237222). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Tolerated"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0". The asparagine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. 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. -
