RCV000823244 | SCV000964095 | pathogenic | Long QT syndrome | 2019-02-22 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This variant is an in-frame deletion of the genomic region encompassing exons 3-6 of the KCNQ1 gene. It preserves the integrity of the reading frame. Similar deletions of exons 3-6 have been reported in individuals affected with long QT syndrome (Invitae). Several missense substitutions located in exons 3-6 (p.Gly168Arg, p.Arg174Cys, p.Ala178Thr, p.Arg190Gln, and others) have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9693036, 17905336, 10973849, 9386136, 23392653, 23130128, 9024139, 22456477, 10973849, 24912595, 8528244, 10728423, 20660394). This suggests that this region is critical for KCNQ1 protein function and that its deletion may also be pathogenic. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. |
