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]

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:3
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 02, 2024This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 885 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg885Cys). This variant is present in population databases (rs143512106, gnomAD 0.03%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 17210839, 18752142, 19716085, 27920829, 30369311). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67422). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect KCNH2 function (PMID: 18222468). 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. -
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedresearchCSER _CC_NCGL, University of WashingtonJun 01, 2014- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthDec 13, 2023This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 885 of the KCNH2 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 this variant does not change the biophysical properties of the protein (PMID: 18222468). This variant has been reported in several individuals affected with or suspected of having long QT syndrome (PMID: 18752142, 19716085, 27920829, 30369311), and in another individual affected with sudden infant death syndrome (PMID: 17210839). One of these individuals also carried a pathogenic splicing variant in the KCNH2 gene that could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 27920829). This variant has also been identified in 58/280856 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. -
Congenital long QT syndrome Benign:1Other:1
Benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingPetrovsky National Research Centre of Surgery, The Federal Agency for Scientific OrganizationsAug 08, 2023Heterozygous variant NM_000238:c.2653C>T (p.Arg885Cys) in the KCNH2 gene was found on WES data in female proband (13 y.o., Caucasian) with Long QT syndrome. An additional variant NM_003098:c.787G>T (p.Ala263Ser) in the SNTA1 gene was found in this proband. This variant is in The Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) v2.1.1 with total MAF 0.0002065 (Date of access 08-08-2023). Clinvar contains entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67422). This variant has been reported in over a dozen studies in patients with variable phenotypes. Experimental data showed the variant exhibited biophysical properties indistinguishable from WT-HERG (PMID: 18752142). Most in silico predictors show pathogenic result of the protein change (varsome.com). In accordance with ACMG(2015) criteria and enhanced rare variant interpretation in inherited arrhythmias (PMID: 32893267) this variant is classified as Benign with following criteria selected: BS1, BS3, PM1, PP2, PP3. -

This is a literature report, and does not necessarily reflect the clinical interpretation of the Imperial College / Royal Brompton Cardiovascular Genetics laboratory. -
not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJul 30, 2018Variant summary: KCNH2 c.2653C>T (p.Arg885Cys) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0002 in 275594 control chromosomes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 2 fold of the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in KCNH2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (0.0001), suggesting the variant may be benign. However, this observation must be interpreted cautiously due to the presence of potenially affected individuals in the ExAC and gnomAD databases. c.2653C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmia without strong evidence for or against pathogenicity. However, one publication reported a co-occurrence with a pathogenic KCNH2 variant (c.1557+1G>C), providing supporting evidence for a benign role (Burns_2016). One publication reports experimental evidence suggesting there is no functional effect of the variant, though the data was not presented for review (Rhodes_2008). No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign until additional information becomes available. -
