Genes affected

KCNH2 (HGNC:6251): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 2) This gene encodes a component of a voltage-activated potassium channel found in cardiac muscle, nerve cells, and microglia. Four copies of this protein interact with one copy of the KCNE2 protein to form a functional potassium channel. Mutations in this gene can cause long QT syndrome type 2 (LQT2). Transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

ACMG classification

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PVS1: Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP5: Variant 7-150947425-T-TGGGGGGG is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150947425-T-TGGGGGGG is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 3076029.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Collection Method: clinical testing

The p.Thr1019fs variant in KCNH2 has not been previously reported in individuals with long QT syndrome. Data from large population studies is insufficient to assess the frequency of this variant. This variant is predicted to cause a frameshift, which alters the protein’s amino acid sequence beginning at position 1019 and leads to a premature termination codon 102 amino acids downstream. This alteration is then predicted to lead to a truncated or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the KCNH2 gene is associated with long QT syndrome. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the p.Thr1019fs variant is likely pathogenic for long QT syndrome in an autosomal dominant manner based on its predicted impact to the protein. -
