Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points: 10P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.2360T>A​(p.Ile787Asn) 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. 13/23 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. I787S) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 10 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 7 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 2 benign, 18 uncertain in NM_000238.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 158 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 38 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.3724 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.4846 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to long QT syndrome 2, Brugada syndrome, short QT syndrome type 1, short QT syndrome, long QT syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.972
• PP5: Variant 7-150950206-A-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150950206-A-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 200428.

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

The Ile787Asn variant in the KCNH2 gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Ile787Asn results in a semi-conservative amino acid substitution of a non-polar Isoleucine with a polar Asparagine at a position that is well conserved across species. Consequently, in silico analysis predicts Ile787Asn is damaging to the protein structure/function. Mutations in nearby residues (Arg784Trp, Gly785Ala, Glu788Asp, Arg791Trp) have been reported in association with LQTS, further supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Furthermore, the Ile787Asn variant was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations.In summary, Ile787Asn in the KCNH2 gene is a good candidate for a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

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. 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"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200428). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of long QT syndrome (Invitae). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with asparagine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 787 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Ile787Asn). -
