Ambry Genetics	RCV000252730	SCV000320119	pathogenic	Cardiovascular phenotype	2025-02-10	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The p.V205M pathogenic mutation (also known as c.613G>A), located in coding exon 4 of the KCNQ1 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 613. The valine at codon 205 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was reported in individual(s) with features consistent with long QT syndrome (Arbour L, Genet. Med. 2008 Jul; 10(7):545-50; Kapplinger JD et al. J. Med. Genet., 2017 Mar; Pottinger TD et al. J Am Heart Assoc, 2020 Feb;9:e013808). In assays testing KCNQ1 function, this variant showed a functionally abnormal result (Arbour L et al. Genet. Med., 2008 Jul;10:545-50; Jackson HA, Clin. Genet. 2014 Jul; 86(1):85-90; Eldstrom J, Heart Rhythm 2015 Feb; 12(2):386-94). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the supporting evidence, this variant is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation.
Laboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized Medicine	RCV000119056	SCV000711083	pathogenic	Congenital long QT syndrome	2017-08-07	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The p.Val205Met variant in KCNQ1 has been reported in 2 individuals with long QT syndrome and segregated with disease in at least 10 affected relatives from bot h families (Arbour 2008). Additionally, four individuals have been reported to b e homozygous for this variant and present with a clinically more severe phenotyp e that did not include hearing loss (Jackson 2014). This variant has also been r eported by other clinical laboratories in ClinVar (variation ID: 3725) and has b een identified in 1/126300 European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Databa se (gnomAD, http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/; dbSNP rs151344631). In vitro func tional studies provide evidence that the p.Val205Met variant may impact protein function (Arbour 2008, Eldstrom 2010, Eldstrom 2015). In summary, this variant m eets criteria to be classified as pathogenic for long QT syndrome in an autosoma l dominant manner based upon segregation studies and functional evidence.
Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	RCV000148547	SCV000917563	pathogenic	Long QT syndrome	2018-07-31	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Variant summary: KCNQ1 c.613G>A (p.Val205Met) results in a conservative amino acid change located in the Ion transport domain (IPR005821) of the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 1.1e-05 in 276590 control chromosomes. c.613G>A has been reported in the literature in multiple heterozygous individuals of whom several were affected with Long QT syndrome, as well as in four homozygous patients presenting with a more severe cardiac phenotype, and occasionally with symptoms suggestive of Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome (Jackson 2014). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function (Arbour 2008). The most pronounced variant effect results in approximately 30%-50% of the normal channel activity. Three clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 and all classified the variant as pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic.
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	RCV000148547	SCV001583911	pathogenic	Long QT syndrome	2024-09-28	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 205 of the KCNQ1 protein (p.Val205Met). This variant is present in population databases (rs151344631, gnomAD 0.008%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome in members of First Nation communities in British Columbia. It has been observed in the heterozygous and homozygous state in numerous affected individuals, though the severity of the symptoms was variable. In addition, this variant has been observed in unrelated individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 18580685, 23844633, 26669661, 27831900). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 37255). Invitae Evidence Modeling of protein sequence and biophysical properties (such as structural, functional, and spatial information, amino acid conservation, physicochemical variation, residue mobility, and thermodynamic stability) 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: 18580685, 25444851). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic.

Clinical Genomics Laboratory, Washington University in St. Louis	RCV000030815	SCV004176997	pathogenic	Long QT syndrome 1	2023-09-04	criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	The KCNQ1 c.613G>A (p.Val205Met) variant has been reported in the medical literature in individuals affected with long QT syndrome (Arbour L et al., PMID: 18580685; Eldstrom J et al., PMID: 25444851; Jackson H et al., PMID: 23844633; Natarajan P et al., PMID: 27831900). This variant is only observed on 3/281,894 total alleles in the general population (gnomAD v.2.1.1), indicating it is not a common variant. Computational predictors indicate that the variant is damaging, evidence that correlates with impact to KCNQ1 protein function. Functional studies suggest that this variant reduces KCNQ1 channel activity, indicating impact to protein function (Arbour L et al., PMID: 18580685; Eldstrom J et al., PMID: 25444851). This variant has been submitted to ClinVar as pathogenic by seven laboratories (variation ID: 37255). Based on available information, and based on ACMG/AMP guidelines for variant interpretation (Richards S et al., PMID: 25741868), this variant is classified as pathogenic.
