Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong
The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.1886A>C(p.Asn629Thr) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. N629D) has been classified as Pathogenic.

not provided Pathogenic:1
The N629T pathogenic variant in the KCNH2 gene has been reported in one individual of European ancestry who was diagnosed with LQTS at the age of 3 years and had a family history of a first degree relative with sudden death before the age of 35 years (Chung S et al., 2007). N629T results in a conservative amino acid substitution at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts this variant is probably damaging to the protein structure/function. Moreover, pathogenic variants affecting this same residue, (N629S, N629I, N629K, N629D) and nearby residues (G628R, G628A, G628S, G628V, V630A, V630L) in the highly conserved pore region have been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database in association with LQTS (Stenson P et al., 2014), further supporting the functional importance of this residue and this region of the protein. Furthermore, N629T was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. In summary, N629T in the KCNH2 gene is interpreted as a pathogenic variant. -
Long QT syndrome Pathogenic:1
This sequence change replaces asparagine, which is neutral and polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 629 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Asn629Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 17905336; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67314). 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 affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 19841300, 22573844, 25348405). This variant disrupts the p.Asn629 amino acid residue in KCNH2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with KCNH2-related conditions (PMID: 9544837, 10517660, 18808722, 22949429), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
Congenital long QT syndrome Other:1
This variant has been reported as associated with Long QT syndrome in the following publications (PMID:17905336). This is a literature report, and does not necessarily reflect the clinical interpretation of the Imperial College / Royal Brompton Cardiovascular Genetics laboratory. -
