Description

This variant is also known as c.203G>A (p.Arg68Gln) in an alternate KCNQ1 transcript (NM_181798.1). This variant has been previously reported in individuals with Long QT syndrome (LQTS; PMID: 29197658). The c.584G>A (p.Arg195Gln) variant is located in a mutational hotspot for pathogenic variations associated with LQTS (PMID: 29851656). This change is predicted by multiple in silico tools to have a deleterious effect on protein function, and functional studies have shown that it alters the protein's voltage-gating activity (PMID: 23861489). Pathogenic missense variants are an established mechanism of disease for KCNQ1-related disorders (PMID: 29532034, 30571187, 29851656, 29197658, 19632626), including a missense variant at the same amino acid residue reported in LQTS (Arg159Pro; PMID: 29532034, 30571187). It is present in the heterozygous state in the gnomAD population database at a frequency of 0.0003% (11/280490) and thus is presumed to be rare. Based on the available evidence, the c.584G>A (p.Arg195Gln) variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic.

Description

The KCNQ1 c.584G>A variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg195Gln. This variant has been previously observed in a cohort of individuals with cardiomyopathy (reported as “benign polymorphism/score 2” in Supplementary table 3, Ng et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23861362), and a healthy control from a cohort of individuals participating in a case-control study of long QT syndrome (Table S1, Kapa et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19841300). In vitro functional studies and/or in silico predicting models report conflicting interpretations regarding this variant’s pathogenicity (Kernik et al. 2020. PubMed ID: 32797034; Vanoye et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30571187; Zaydman et al. 2013. PubMed ID: 23861489). This variant is reported in 0.0070% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/11-2591964-G-A). Based on gnomAD frequency data, a recent study considered this variant as statistically too common to be a LQT1-causative variant and recommended downgrading it (Clemens et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 29197658). At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence.
