Invitae RCV001388792 SCV001589930 pathogenic Long QT syndrome 2023-12-05 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with histidine, which is basic and polar, at codon 591 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Arg591His). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 10024302, 15234419, 16253915, 19261104, 21482651, 22727609, 22949429). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 53017). 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 expected to disrupt KCNQ1 protein function with a positive predictive value of 95%. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNQ1 function (PMID: 16253915, 20662986). This variant disrupts the p.Arg591 amino acid residue in KCNQ1. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with KCNQ1-related conditions (PMID: 22429796, 22949429, 23158531), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV002399408 SCV002711855 pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2021-10-20 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R591H pathogenic mutation (also known as c.1772G>A), located in coding exon 15 of the KCNQ1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1772. The arginine at codon 591 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant has been detected in multiple individuals with long QT syndrome (LQTS) and has also been reported in affected relatives (Neyroud N et al. Circ Res, 1999 Feb;84:290-7; Tester DJ et al. Heart Rhythm, 2006 Jul;3:815-21; Robinson JA et al. Congenit Heart Dis Apr;10:354-61; Grunnet M et al. Heart Rhythm, 2005 Nov;2:1238-49; Marschall C et al. Cardiovasc Diagn Ther, 2019 Oct;9:S292-S298). Functional studies have demonstrated defective protein trafficking and a significant reduction in potassium channel current (Grunnet M et al. Heart Rhythm, 2005 Nov;2:1238-49; Horr S et al. J Cardiovasc Electrophysiol, 2011 Feb;22:193-200; David JP et al. Traffic, 2013 Apr;14:399-411). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
