Description

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. This variant disrupts the p.Trp305 amino acid residue in KCNQ1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 19490272, 19716085, 21451124, 26344792). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ1 function (PMID: 26344792). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. This sequence change replaces tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 305 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Trp305Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs120074186, gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Long QT syndrome (PMID: 26344792). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200824).

Description

This missense variant replaces tryptophan with leucine at codon 305 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). This variant is found within a highly conserved pore region (a.a. 300-320). Rare non-truncating variants in this region have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 32893267). A functional study has shown that this variant results in significantly decreased peak current densities compared to wild type protein (PMID: 26344792). This variant has been reported in 2 individuals affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 26344792, 28532774) and 2 individuals with suspected long QT syndrome (PMID: 31737537). This variant was found to partially segregate in a family with long QT syndrome and a syncope phenotype (PMID: 26344792). A different missense variant occurring at the same codon, p.Trp305Ser, is known to be disease-causing (ClinVar variation ID: 3127). This variant has been identified in 1/249180 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Although there is a suspicion for a pathogenic role, the available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this p.Trp305Leu variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance.
