Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP3_Strong PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.1881C>A​(p.Phe627Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. 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 (★★). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. F627F) has been classified as Likely benign.

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 16 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a intramembrane_region Pore-forming; Name=Segment H5 (size 20) in uniprot entity KCNH2_HUMAN there are 23 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000238.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.993
• PP5: Variant 7-150951512-G-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150951512-G-T is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 200747.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

The Phe627Leu mutation in the KCNH2 gene has been published previously in association with LQTS (1-3). Phe627Leu, located in the pore region of the protein, has been reported in individuals with LQTS who harbored a different nucleotide substitution which resulted in the same Phe627Leu protein change as this patient (c.1879 T>C and c.1881 C>G, respectively). Lin et al. (2008) reported a 25-week fetus with intermittent AV block due to an extremely long QT interval who harbored the Phe627Leu mutation in the KCNH2 gene, as well as a missense mutation in the SCN5A gene. Another mutation affecting the same residue (Phe627Ile) as well as neighboring residues (Val625Glu, Gly626Ala, Gly626Asp, Gly626Ser, Gly626Val, Gly628Ala, Gly628Ser, Gly628Val) have also been reported in association with LQTS, further supporting the functional importance of this residue and this region of the protein. Phe627Leu was not detected in over 400 control chromosomes reported in the literature, nor in up to 400 control chromosomes of African American and Caucasian ancestry tested at GeneDx, indicating it is not a common benign polymorphism in these populations. Therefore, the presence of the Phe627Leu mutation in the KCNH2 gene is consistent with a diagnosis of an autosomal dominant form of LQTS. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -

Significance: Pathogenic

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of long QT syndrome (PMID: 24322056, 24217263, 18848812, 11854117). In at least one individual the variant was observed to be de novo. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200747). This missense change has been reported to affect KCNH2 protein function (PMID: 25417810, 18848812). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site, but this prediction has not been confirmed by published transcriptional studies. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This sequence change replaces phenylalanine with leucine at codon 627 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Phe627Leu). The phenylalanine residue is highly conserved and there is a small physicochemical difference between phenylalanine and leucine. -
