Description

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with glutamine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 518 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Arg518Gln). This variant is present in population databases (rs145974930, gnomAD 0.005%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with sudden infant death syndrome and in individuals with QT intervals in the normal range (PMID: 26159999, 29544605). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67036). Advanced modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) performed at Invitae indicates that this missense variant is not expected to disrupt KCNQ1 protein function with a negative predictive value of 80%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect KCNQ1 function (PMID: 26546361). This variant disrupts the p.Arg518 amino acid residue in KCNQ1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 16414944, 21511995, 24363352; Invitae). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. 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.

Description

This missense variant replaces arginine with glutamine at codon 518 of the KCNQ1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Functional studies have shown that this variant does not affect the ability of KCNQ1 protein to regulate renal ciliogenesis (PMID: 19716085, 26546361). This variant has been reported in an individual affected with sudden infant death syndrome (PMID: 29544605) and in several individuals referred for long QT syndrome genetic testing (PMID: 19716085, 26159999). Mean QTc interval of the carriers was not significantly different from that of non-carriers (PMID: 26159999). This variant has also been reported in one individual affected with cardiac arrest; however, the sibling who also carried the variant was asymptomatic (PMID: 31994352). This variant has been identified in 9/282772 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
