Some mutation carriers exhibited dysmorphic features, including hypertelorism, small mandible, syndactyly, clinodactyly, cleft palate, and scoliosis, which, together with cardiodysrhythmic periodic paralysis, constitute Andersen syndrome (<a href="/entry/170390">170390</a>). However, no individual exhibited all manifestations of Andersen syndrome, and this diagnosis was not considered in the proband until other family members were examined. Other features seen in this kindred included unilateral dysplastic kidney and cardiovascular malformation (i.e., bicuspid aortic valve, bicuspid aortic valve with coarctation of the aorta, or valvular pulmonary stenosis), which had not previously been associated with Andersen syndrome. Nonspecific electrocardiographic abnormalities were identified in some individuals, but none had a prolonged QT interval. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=12148092" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p><p><a href="#2" class="mim-tip-reference" title="Andelfinger, G., Tapper, A.

(2012)</a> identified heterozygosity for a c.902T-A transversion in the KCNJ2 gene, resulting in a met301-to-lys (M301K) substitution at a highly conserved residue within a pore-facing loop region in the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. Family DNA was unavailable for study, but the variant was not found in 400 Japanese control alleles. Functional characterization of mutant channels in HEK293 cells showed that homozygous mutant channels were entirely nonfunctional, whereas heterozygous channels had very weak inward rectification, which resulted in significantly larger outward current densities at potentials between -30 and +100 mV. Studies using transiently transfected neonatal rat ventricular myocytes demonstrated that significant increases in outward currents within the voltage range of action potentials (APs) shortened the AP duration by accelerating membrane repolarization. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings revealed the importance of a neutral amino acid residue like methionine at position 301 for generating Kir2.1 inward rectification: substituting a different neutral (alanine) or a positively charged (arginine) residue at M301 resulted in function similar to wildtype with the former, and attenuated inward rectification with the latter, similar to that seen with the M301K mutant. <a href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?cmd=link&linkname=pubmed_pubmed&from_uid=22155372" target="_blank" onclick="gtag('event', 'mim_outbound', {'name': 'PubMed Related', 'domain': 'pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov'})"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-plus-sign mim-tip-hint" title="Click this 'reference-plus' icon to see articles related to this paragraph in PubMed."></span></a></p>

<p>Raab-Graham et al. (1994) used low stringency colony hybridization with the complete coding region of the mouse IRK gene (Kubo et al., 1993) to isolate cDNA from human heart that encodes an inwardly rectifying potassium channel, KCNJ2. Raab-Graham et al. (1994) symbolized the gene HHIRK1. The cDNA encodes a 427-amino acid protein with 2 putative transmembrane domains and an H5 region. Expression of HHIRK1 in Xenopus oocytes demonstrated strong inward rectification that was blocked by both extracellular barium and cesium ions, and they measured a single channel conductance of 30 pS. Northern blot analysis demonstrated a single 5.5-kb transcript with high levels in heart, brain, placenta, lung, and skeletal muscle. Lower levels were present in kidney. The HHIRK1 message was found in all brain subregions tested, particularly in the caudate nucleus, corpus callosum, and substantia nigra. In regions of sequence overlap, HHIRK1 shares 66 to 67% identity with a small conductance human potassium channel (KCNJ4; 600504). Because of similarities in channel properties, Raab-Graham et al. (1994) suggested that HHIRK1 was the prominent cardiac inward rectifier. </p>

(See also KCNJ1, 600359). </p><p>By radiation hybrid analysis, electronic PCR, and sequence similarity to mapped BACs, Derst et al.

<p>Doyle et al. (1998) determined the atomic structure of a bacterial potassium channel pore by means of x-ray crystallography. However, serious doubts were raised concerning whether the prokaryotic potassium channel pore actually represents those of eukaryotes. Lu et al. (2001) addressed this issue by substituting the prokaryotic potassium channel pore into eukaryotic voltage-gated (see 176260) and inward-rectifier potassium channels. The resulting chimeras retained the respective functional hallmarks of the eukaryotic channels, which indicates that the ion conduction pore is indeed conserved among potassium channels. </p><p>Preisig-Muller et al. (2002) demonstrated that heteromerization of Kir2.1 channels with wildtype Kir2.2 and Kir2.3 channels contributes to the phenotype of Andersen syndrome (170390). Coexpression of Kir2.1 mutants related to Andersen syndrome with wildtype Kir2.x channels showed a dominant negative effect, the extent of which varied between different mutants. The results suggested that differential tetramerization of the mutant allele of Kir2.1 with wildtype Kir2.1, Kir2.2, and Kir2.3 channels represents the molecular basis of the extraordinary pleiotropy and variability of Andersen syndrome. In addition to cardiac arrhythmias and periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features include scoliosis, low-set ears, wide-set eyes, small chin, and broad forehead, but expression of these traits is highly variable. </p><p>Miake et al. (2002) replaced 3 amino acid residues in the pore structure of Kir2.1 with alanine to create a dominant-negative construct that suppresses current when expressed with wildtype Kir2.1. When this construct was packaged with green fluorescent protein (GFP) into a bicistronic adenoviral vector and injected into the left ventricular cavity of guinea pigs during transient cross-clamping of the great vessels, transduction was successful in about 20% of ventricular myocytes, as determined by GFP fluorescence. This suppression of Kir2.1 converted quiescent heart muscle cells into pacemaker cells that successfully generated a spontaneous rhythmic electrical activity in the ventricle in vivo. Miake et al. (2002) concluded that genetically engineered pacemakers could be developed as a possible alternative to implantable electronic devices. </p>

<strong>Gene Function</strong>
</span>
</h4>
</div>
<span class="mim-text-font">
<p>Inwardly rectifying potassium (Kir) channels are important regulators of resting membrane potential and cell excitability. The activity of Kir channels is critically dependent on the integrity of channel interactions with phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2). Using targeted mutations in KCNJ2 and KCNJ1 (600359), which the authors called Kir2.1 and Kir1.1, Lopes et al. (2002) identified residues important for PIP2 interaction. Mutations in residues associated with Andersen syndrome (170390) and Bartter syndrome (241200) decreased the strength of channel-PIP2 interactions. Lopes et al. (2002) concluded that a decrease in channel-PIP2 interactions underlies the molecular mechanism of Andersen and Bartter syndromes when these mutations are present in patients. </p><p>To gain insight into the mechanism of arrhythmia susceptibility, Tristani-Firouzi et al. (2002) used a ventricular myocyte model to simulate the effects of reduced Kir2.1. A reduction in Kir2.1 prolonged the terminal phase of the cardiac action potential, and in the setting of reduced extracellular potassium ion, induced delayed afterdepolarizations and spontaneous arrhythmias. These findings suggested that the substrate for arrhythmia susceptibility in Andersen syndrome is distinct from that in the other forms of inherited long QT syndrome. </p><p>Although chloroquine is an important therapeutic agent for treatment of malaria, its safety margin is narrow. Chloroquine inhibits the cardiac inward rectifier K+ current and can induce lethal ventricular arrhythmias. Rodriguez-Menchaca et al. (2008) found that chloroquine blocked mouse Kir2.1 channels from the cytoplasmic surface in a voltage- and K(+)-dependent manner. Mutagenesis and molecular modeling showed that chloroquine did not penetrate deeply into the channel and was stabilized within the binding pocket by negatively charged and aromatic amino acids. </p><p>Epshtein et al. (2009) noted that K(+) channel activation is suppressed by elevated membrane cholesterol. By mutating specific residues in mouse Kir2.1, they found that cholesterol sensitivity was due to a subset of channel-activating PIP2-sensitive residues within the CD loop in the C-terminal cytosolic domain. PIP2-sensitive residues outside this loop and lipid-facing residues of the outer helix transmembrane domain were not involved in cholesterol sensitivity. Mutations of the critical residues did not interfere with Kir2.1-PIP2 interaction and did not alter the targeting of Kir2.1 to specific membrane domains. Epshtein et al. (2009) hypothesized that these residues may contribute to the docking of the Kir2.1 C terminus to the inner membrane leaflet, facilitating its interaction with membrane cholesterol, and possibly stabilizing the channel in the closed conformation. </p><p>Atrial fibrillation is accompanied by increased inward rectifier K+ currents along with increased expression of the principal K+ channel subunit KCNJ2. Luo et al. (2013) found that MIR26 (see MIR26A1, 612151) expression was downregulated concomitant with upregulation of KCNJ2 in atrial samples of patients with atrial fibrillation and in canine and mouse models. They identified a MIR26 target sequence in the KCNJ2 mRNA. Knockdown or inhibition of Mir26, or mutation of the Mir26-binding site in Kcnj2 in rat cardiomyocytes, enhanced Kcnj2 expression and confirmed Kcnj2 as a Mir26 target. Conversely, expression of Kcnj2-specific oligonucleotides masking the Mir26-binding site elevated Kcnj2 expression and increased vulnerability of mice to atrial fibrillation. Luo et al. (2013) further found that NFAT (see NFATC1, 600489) negatively regulated Mir26 transcription and consequently elevated Kcnj2 expression. The authors concluded that downregulated MIR26 expression contributes to development of atrial fibrillation due to enhanced KCNJ2 expression. </p>

<p><strong><em>Andersen Cardiodysrhythmic Periodic Paralysis</em></strong></p><p>
Andersen cardiodysrhythmic periodic paralysis (170390), also known as Andersen syndrome, Andersen-Tawil syndrome, or long QT syndrome-7 (LQT7), is characterized by periodic paralysis, cardiac arrhythmias, and dysmorphic features. Using 400 polymorphic markers across the entire genome in 15 individuals of a kindred with Andersen syndrome, Plaster et al. (2001) mapped the disease locus to 17q23 (maximum lod of 3.23 at theta of 0 for D17S949) near the KCNJ2 gene. They identified heterozygosity for a missense mutation in the KCNJ2 gene in the linked family and 8 additional heterozygous mutations in unrelated patients. Expression of 2 of these mutations (D71V, 600681.0001, and R218W, 600681.0002) in Xenopus oocytes revealed loss of function and a dominant-negative effect in KCNJ2 current as assayed by voltage-clamp. Plaster et al. (2001) concluded that mutations in the KCNJ2 gene cause Andersen syndrome, and the findings suggested that KCNJ2 plays an important role in developmental signaling in addition to its function in controlling cell excitability in skeletal muscle and heart. </p><p>Tristani-Firouzi et al. (2002) identified 3 novel Andersen syndrome-associated mutations in the KCNJ2 gene (600681.0007-600681.0009) and presented extensive clinical and in vitro electrophysiologic studies on a total of 17 kindreds with 10 different mutations. All these mutations in KCNJ2 caused dominant-negative suppression of Kir2.1 channel function. There was significant overlap in the extent of dominant-negative effect as well as overlap in clinical phenotype. LQT and ventricular arrhythmias were common in mutation carriers. Unlike other forms of inherited LQTS, sudden death had not been reported in Andersen syndrome. </p><p>Among 17 unrelated probands with clinical symptoms of Andersen syndrome, Donaldson et al. (2003) identified 8 different mutations, including 6 novel mutations, in the KCNJ2 gene in 9 probands. Six probands possessed mutations of residues implicated in binding membrane-associated PIP2. Including previous reports, the authors determined that mutations in PIP2-related residues accounted for disease in 18 of 29 (62%) reported families with KCNJ2-related ATS. Donaldson et al. (2003) found no phenotypic differences between patients with mutations in the PIP2-related residues and those with mutations elsewhere in the gene. The authors suggested that genetic heterogeneity likely exists for this disorder. </p><p>Davies et al. (2005) identified 9 different pathogenic mutations in the KCNJ2 gene, including 6 novel mutations, in 22 affected individuals from 11 unrelated families with Andersen-Tawil syndrome. In vitro functional expression studies of 5 of the mutant proteins showed a dominant-negative effect on the wildtype allele. </p><p>In 3 affected members of a family with Andersen syndrome, Lu et al. (2006) identified heterozygosity for a missense mutation in the KCNJ2 gene (T75R; 600681.0011), located in the highly conserved cytoplasmic N-terminal domain. In vitro studies revealed that the mutant channel was nonfunctional, and T75R transgenic mice had bidirectional ventricular tachycardia after induction and longer QT intervals. </p><p>Choi et al. (2007) identified 2 different heterozygous missense mutations in the KCNJ2 gene in affected members of 2 Korean families with Andersen-Tawil syndrome. The authors stated that this was the first report of causative mutations in KCNJ2 in Korean ATS patients. </p><p>In 2 unrelated probands with periodic paralysis and cardiac dysrhythmias, who were known to be negative for common CACNA1S and SCN4A mutations causing hypokalemic periodic paralysis, Bendahhou et al. (2007) identified heterozygosity for 2 different missense mutations in the KCNJ2 gene (600681.0012 and 600681.0013, respectively). Bendahhou et al. (2007) noted that except for a small chin in 1 proband, there were no dysmorphic features in these families, and suggested that KCNJ2 should be screened in patients with periodic paralysis even when the classic dysmorphic features of Andersen syndrome are not present. </p><p><strong><em>Short QT Syndrome 3</em></strong></p><p>
In a 5-year-old girl and her father with short QT syndrome-3 (SQT3; 609622), Priori et al. (2005) identified a missense mutation in the KCNJ2 gene (D172N; 600681.0010). Functional studies revealed a significant increase in the outward component of the I-V relation of I(K1). </p><p>In an 8-year-old Japanese girl with a markedly short QT interval, Hattori et al. (2012) screened known cardiac ion channel genes and identified heterozygosity for a missense mutation in the KCNJ2 gee (M301K; 600681.0015). Family DNA was unavailable for study, but the variant was not found in 400 Japanese control alleles. Functional assays revealed that homozygous mutant channels were completely nonfunctional, whereas heterozygous M301K channels showed impaired inward rectification resulting in larger outward currents, which the authors stated was a novel mechanism predisposing to SQTS. </p><p>In an 11-year-old boy with recurrent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and short QT interval, Deo et al. (2013) identified heterozygosity for a missense mutation in the KCNJ2 gene (E299V; 600681.0016). Functional analysis revealed that the E299V mutation abolishes inward rectification; heterozygous channels showed severely impaired inward rectification, resulting in a large outward current during the early phase of the action potential that markedly shortens its duration. </p><p><strong><em>Familial Atrial Fibrillation 9</em></strong></p><p>
In affected members of a Chinese family segregating autosomal dominant atrial fibrillation (ATFB9; 613980), Xia et al. (2005) identified heterozygosity for a mutation in the KCNJ2 gene (V93I; 600681.0014). Functional analysis revealed that the V93I mutation has a gain-of-function effect on the Kir2.1 current, in contrast to the loss of function observed with previously reported KCNJ2 mutations associated with the Andersen periodic paralysis syndrome. </p><p><strong><em>Associations Pending Confirmation</em></strong></p><p>

<p>See Andersen cardiodysrhythmic periodic paralysis (170390). Andelfinger et al. (2002) identified a heterozygous missense mutation (arg67 to trp; R67W) in the KCNJ2 gene in 41 members of a kindred with ventricular arrhythmias (13 of 16 female members, 81%) and periodic paralysis (10 of 25 male members, 40%) segregating as autosomal dominant traits with sex-specific variable expressivity. Some mutation carriers exhibited dysmorphic features, including hypertelorism, small mandible, syndactyly, clinodactyly, cleft palate, and scoliosis, which, together with cardiodysrhythmic periodic paralysis, constitute Andersen syndrome (170390). However, no individual exhibited all manifestations of Andersen syndrome, and this diagnosis was not considered in the proband until other family members were examined. Other features seen in this kindred included unilateral dysplastic kidney and cardiovascular malformation (i.e., bicuspid aortic valve, bicuspid aortic valve with coarctation of the aorta, or valvular pulmonary stenosis), which had not previously been associated with Andersen syndrome. Nonspecific electrocardiographic abnormalities were identified in some individuals, but none had a prolonged QT interval. </p><p>Andelfinger et al. (2002) stated that sex specificity of cardiac arrhythmias and periodic paralysis had not previously been described in Andersen syndrome. However, there had been an increasing recognition of specific electrocardiographic and electrophysiologic differences--for example, resting heart rate and corrected QT intervals--between males and females, but the precise way in which sex and gonadal steroids contribute to these differences was not known (Pham and Rosen, 2002; Wolbrette et al., 2002). Female subjects with the R67W mutation typically noted onset of ventricular arrhythmia after age 10 years. An increased incidence is usually reported during pregnancy, but female subjects with R67W reported reduced ventricular arrhythmias during pregnancy and after age 55 years, coinciding with menopause. </p>

They found that the D172N mutation abbreviates the action potential duration (APD) at 90% of repolarization (APD90) and steepens the restitution of APD and effective refractory period (ERP) curves, thus increasing susceptibility to arrhythmia; shortens the QT interval and alters the morphology of T-waves, which were tall, peaked, and asymmetric, similar to those of the Priori et al. (2005) proband; augments the transmural dispersion of APD90 across the ventricular wall, which leads to the increase, at some localized regions, of the temporal vulnerability of the tissue to the genesis of unidirectional conduction by premature excitation; reduces the minimal substrate size of tissue required to initiate and maintain reentry; and stabilizes and accelerates reentrant excitation waves. The authors concluded that the D172N mutant results in increased transmural APD dispersion that increases tissue vulnerability to the genesis of reentry with premature exitation, and also shortens the ventricular tissue ERP, which facilitates the maintenance of reentry once it has been initiated. </p>

<p>In 3 affected members of a family with Andersen syndrome (170390), Lu et al. (2006) identified heterozygosity for a 224C-G transversion, resulting in a thr75-to-arg (T75R) substitution at a highly conserved codon in the cytoplasmic N-terminal portion of Kir2.1. The mutation was not found in 2 unaffected family members or in 100 unrelated controls. Although the mutant protein was able to coassemble and traffic to the cell membrane in mouse atrial cardiomyocytes, voltage clamp analysis in Xenopus oocytes revealed that the mutant channel was nonfunctional; upon coexpression of mutant and wildtype cRNA in Xenopus oocytes, the K(+) current was completely lost, demonstrating the strong dominant-negative effect of the T75R mutant. Transgenic T75R mice had bidirectional ventricular tachycardia after induction and longer QT intervals. </p>

<p>In an 8-year-old Japanese girl with a markedly short QT interval (SQT3; 609622), Hattori et al. (2012) identified heterozygosity for a c.902T-A transversion in the KCNJ2 gene, resulting in a met301-to-lys (M301K) substitution at a highly conserved residue within a pore-facing loop region in the C-terminal cytoplasmic domain. Family DNA was unavailable for study, but the variant was not found in 400 Japanese control alleles. Functional characterization of mutant channels in HEK293 cells showed that homozygous mutant channels were entirely nonfunctional, whereas heterozygous channels had very weak inward rectification, which resulted in significantly larger outward current densities at potentials between -30 and +100 mV. Studies using transiently transfected neonatal rat ventricular myocytes demonstrated that significant increases in outward currents within the voltage range of action potentials (APs) shortened the AP duration by accelerating membrane repolarization. Whole-cell patch-clamp recordings revealed the importance of a neutral amino acid residue like methionine at position 301 for generating Kir2.1 inward rectification: substituting a different neutral (alanine) or a positively charged (arginine) residue at M301 resulted in function similar to wildtype with the former, and attenuated inward rectification with the latter, similar to that seen with the M301K mutant. </p>

<p>In an 11-year-old boy with recurrent paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and short QT interval (SQT3; 609622), Deo et al. (2013) identified heterozygosity for a de novo c.896A-T transversion in the KCNJ2 gene, resulting in a glu299-to-val (E299V) substitution at a highly conserved residue within the Kir2.1 cytoplasmic terminal. The mutation was not found in his parents or in 400 control individuals. Functional analysis in HEK293 cells showed a significant reduction of the inward current with the heterozygous E299V mutant channel compared to wildtype, with major impairment at more positive voltages. Action potential clamp recordings confirmed severely impaired inward rectification with the E299V mutant, resulting in a large outward current during the early phase of the action potential that dramatically shortens the action potential duration. </p>

To ensure long-term funding for the OMIM project, we have diversified
our revenue stream. We are determined to keep this website freely
accessible. Unfortunately, it is not free to produce. Expert curators
review the literature and organize it to facilitate your work. Over 90%
of the OMIM's operating expenses go to salary support for MD and PhD
science writers and biocurators. Please join your colleagues by making a
donation now and again in the future. Donations are an important
component of our efforts to ensure long-term funding to provide you the
information that you need at your fingertips.
