Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV000818073 SCV000958668 uncertain significance Andersen Tawil syndrome; Short QT syndrome type 3 2018-12-21 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing 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.Arg189 amino acid residue in KCNJ2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with KCNJ2-related conditions (PMID:27145478, 12796536), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with KCNJ2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine with threonine at codon 189 of the KCNJ2 protein (p.Arg189Thr). The arginine residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and threonine.
