Description
The P1021S variant has been reported in one individual with LQTS (Mullally et al., 2013), though no clinical or segregation data was provided. The P1021S variant was not observed in approximately 6,100 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Although P1021S has been seen in multiple individuals referred for LQTS testing at GeneDx, segregation data is not sufficient due to the lack of clinical information provided and/or insufficient participation by informative family members. The P1021S variant, located in the DII/DIII intracellular loop, results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. However, this substitution occurs at a position that is not conserved. Consequently, in silico analysis predicts this variant likely does not alter the protein structure/function. Therefore, based on the currently available information, it is unclear whether this variant is pathogenic or rare benign.
