RCV001842079 | SCV001734131 | uncertain significance | Cardiac arrhythmia | 2021-02-19 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces histidine with arginine at codon 240 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). A functional study has shown that the mutant channel shows hyper-polarized ionic and gating current activation (PMID: 23359697). This variant has been reported in one case of sudden unexplained death and an individual affected with prolonged QT intervals in the same family (PMID: 26228265). This variant has been identified in 8/249160 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
