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.2362G>A​(p.Glu788Lys) 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. 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. E788D) 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 binding_site (size 100) 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 chr7-150950202-C-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.972
• PP5: Variant 7-150950204-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150950204-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 67389.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Likely_pathogenic=1, not_provided=1, Uncertain_significance=1}. Variant chr7-150950204-C-T is described in Lovd as [Likely_pathogenic].

Long QT syndrome Pathogenic:1 Uncertain:1

Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Mar 25, 2022	ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67389). In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 25417810). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (LQTS), one of them also suffering from episodes of severe convulsion and seizures (PMID: 19184172, 19716085). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces glutamic acid, which is acidic and polar, with lysine, which is basic and polar, at codon 788 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Glu788Lys). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health	Jun 08, 2023	This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with lysine at codon 788 of the KCNH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). This variant is found within a highly conserved region of the cyclic nucleotide binding domain. Rare nontruncating variants in this region (a.a.742-842) have been shown to be significantly overrepresented in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 32893267). A functional study has shown that this variant causes abnormal trafficking of KCNH2 protein in transfected HEK293 cells (PMID: 25417810), which was not confirmed in another study (PMID: 26958806). This variant has been reported in several individuals affected with or suspected of having long QT syndrome including a compound heterozygous individual who had severe phenotypes (PMID: 19184172, 19716085, 20850565, 27041096,). This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Although there is a suspicion for a pathogenic role, 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. -
