Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.131G>A​(p.Cys44Tyr) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 12/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. C44F) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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 11 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a domain PAS (size 29) in uniprot entity KCNH2_HUMAN there are 17 pathogenic changes around while only 0 benign (100%) in NM_000238.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-150974887-C-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.986
• PP5: Variant 7-150974887-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150974887-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 1214199.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, Uncertain_significance=1}.

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. This sequence change replaces cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, with tyrosine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 44 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Cys44Tyr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of long QT syndrome (PMID: 23631430; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1214199). 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: 35688148). This variant disrupts the p.Cys44 amino acid residue in KCNH2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with KCNH2-related conditions (PMID: 27816319; Invitae), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. -
