GeneDx RCV000443262 SCV000515710 likely pathogenic not provided 2019-08-22 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing Not observed at a significant frequency in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 22806368, 15723059, 19862833, 12796536, 25284084)
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp RCV001055449 SCV001219842 pathogenic Andersen Tawil syndrome; Short QT syndrome type 3 2023-04-07 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 312 of the KCNJ2 protein (p.Arg312Cys). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNJ2 function (PMID: 12086641). 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 KCNJ2 protein function. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67594). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of Andersen-Tawil syndrome (PMID: 12796536, 15911703, 22806368, 25284084). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473389, gnomAD 0.0009%).

PreventionGenetics, part of Exact Sciences RCV003390761 SCV004110087 likely pathogenic KCNJ2-related disorder 2023-06-27 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The KCNJ2 c.934C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg312Cys. This variant was reported in multiple individual with Andersen syndrome (Donaldson et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12796536; Zhang et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15911703; Tan et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22806368; Nagamine et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25284084). Functional studies found this variant affects KCNJ2 function (Donaldson et al. 2003. PubMed ID: 12796536). This variant has been interpreted as pathogenic/likely pathogenic in ClinVar (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/67594/). This variant is reported in 0.00088% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org/variant/17-68172114-C-T). This variant is interpreted as likely pathogenic.
Ambry Genetics RCV004992005 SCV005602530 likely pathogenic Cardiovascular phenotype 2024-11-01 criteria provided, single submitter clinical testing The p.R312C variant (also known as c.934C>T), located in coding exon 1 of the KCNJ2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 934. The arginine at codon 312 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This variant has been reported in association with KCNJ2 - related disease (Donaldson MR et al. Neurology, 2003 Jun;60:1811-6; Zhang L et al. Circulation, 2005 May;111:2720-6; Tan SV et al. Muscle Nerve, 2012 Aug;46:193-203; Limberg MM et al. Basic Res Cardiol, 2013 May;108:353; Yuan JH et al. Front Neurol, 2023 Jan;14:1078195). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. This variant was also shown to have diminished current compared to the wild type in a heterozygous expression assay (Lopes CM et al. Neuron, 2002 Jun;34:933-44). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
