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]

This variant, c.3098_3100dup, results in the insertion of 1 amino acid(s) of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg1033dup), but otherwise preserves the integrity of the reading frame. This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.02%). This variant has been observed in individual(s) with Long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085). This variant is also known as c.3101_3103insGGC (p.1034insR). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 402997). Experimental studies and prediction algorithms are not available or were not evaluated, and the functional significance of this variant is currently unknown. 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. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

The c.3098_3100dupGGC variant (also known as p.R1033dup) is located in coding exon 13 of the KCNH2 gene. This variant results from an in-frame duplication of GGC at nucleotide positions 3098 to 3100. This results in the duplication of an arginine residue at codon 1033. In a study of long QT syndrome clinical genetic testing, this alteration (referred to as c.3101_3103insGGC, p.1034insR) was reported in one patient; however, clinical details were limited (Kapplinger JD et al. Heart Rhythm, 2009 Sep;6:1297-303). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant causes a duplication of one amino acid at codon 1033 in the KCNH2 protein. To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant (as known as c.3101_3103insGGC; p.1034insR) has been reported in an individual suspected of having long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085). This variant has been identified in 4/31294 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. -
