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]

Uncertain:1Benign:1

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Mar 06, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Women's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorp	Nov 04, 2019	Variant summary: KCNH2 c.3140G>T (p.Arg1047Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Four of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.027 in 171128 control chromosomes in the gnomAD database, including 44 homozygotes. The observed variant frequency is approximately 270- fold the estimated maximal expected allele frequency for a pathogenic variant in KCNH2 causing Arrhythmia phenotype (0.0001), strongly suggesting that the variant is benign. c.3140G>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with various cardiovascular phenotypes without strong evidence for causality (e.g. LQTS: Mazzadi_2003; SQTS: Hu_2017; Brugada Syndrome: Kauferstein_2017; drug-induced Torsades de Pointes : Sun_2014, VanDriest_2016; sudden infant death syndrome: Anson_2004, Arnestad_2007, Glengarry_2014, Smith_2018), in many cases being found in both patients and controls. These reports do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. Co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been reported (KCNH2 c.215C>A, p.Pro72Gln; internal sample), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. Multiple publications report experimental evidence evaluating the impact of the variant on hERG channel activity. Several reports indicate that the biochemical activity of hERG channels in cells expressing the variant are similar to wild-type (Anson_2004, Mannikko_2010), while others others indicate that the levels of channel activation or repolarization may be altered to varying degrees in cells expressing the variant (Sun_2004, Chevalier_2007, Jou_2013). Seven ClinVar submitters (evaluation after 2014) have cited the variant four times as benign, two times as likely benign, and one time as uncertain significance. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as benign. -

The KCNH2 Arg1047Leu variant has previously been reported as a polymorphism and suggested to be associated with increased risk to Torsades de Pointes (Mank-Seymour AR et al., 2006; Sun Z et al., 2004; Kapa S et al., 2009). It is present in the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/) with an allele frequency of 0.008 (105/11944 alleles); and the frequency in the European (non-Finnish) sub-population is 0.02 (73/3656 alleles). We identified this variant in a 16 yo boy who had a sudden cardiac arrest with no pre-morbid diagnosis and Greek ethnicity. Post-mortem examination was unremarkable and there is no family history of any cardiac disease. Based on the frequency of the KCNH2 Arg1047Leu variant in 2% of the European (non-Finnish) population, we do not expect this variant to cause disease in isolation. We therefore classify this variant as "likely benign". -

This alteration is classified as benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
