Description
This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 567 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Ile567Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of long QT syndrome (LQTs) and/or Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (JLNS) (PMID: 16414944, 19716085, 22429796, 23130128, 24372464). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53007). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) has been performed for this missense variant. However, the output from this modeling did not meet the statistical confidence thresholds required to predict the impact of this variant on KCNQ1 protein function. This variant disrupts the p.Ile567 amino acid residue in KCNQ1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 17470695, 22456477). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
