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]

Heterozygous mutation c.234_241del (p.Ala79AspfsTer63) in KCNH2 gene was found in male proband (13 y.o., Caucasian) with Long QT syndrome. This variant is absent in Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD) (date of access 2022-11-22). Functional analysis shows this mutation leads to a loss of hERG potassium channel function (PMID: 19668779). The variant has been reported in several articles (PMID: 36102233, 23098067, 19716085, 19668779). ClinVar contains entry on this variant (Variation ID: 264104). In accordance with ACMG(2015) criteria this variant is classified as Pathogenic with following criteria selected: PVS1, PS3, PS4_moderate, PM2. -

The c.234_241delTGCCGCGC pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 2 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a deletion of 8 nucleotides between positions 234 and 241, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon. This mutation was detected in a proband with sports-induced syncope in childhood, atypical ECG findings, and family history which included seizures, dizziness, and abnormal ECG findings consistent with LQTS2 (Keller DI et al. Can J Cardiol 2009;25(8):455-62). In another study, this mutation was detected in two of 2500 individuals referred for LQTS-related genetic testing (Kapplinger JD et al. Heart Rhythm 2009;6(9):1297-303). In addition to the clinical data presented in the literature, since frameshifts are typically deleterious in nature, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation (ACMG Recommendations for Standards for Interpretation and Reporting of Sequence Variations. Revision 2007. Genet Med. 2008;10:294). -
