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]

In silico analysis, which includes protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, supports a deleterious effect; Not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016); Reported in ClinVar but additional evidence is not available (ClinVar Variant ID# 161256; Landrum et al., 2016); This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25637381, 22173492) -

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1

Significance: Uncertain significance

Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter

Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 535 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Val535Met). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 22173492). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 161256). 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: 26105569). 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 p.V535M variant (also known as c.1603G>A), located in coding exon 7 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 1603. The valine at codon 535 is replaced by methionine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was previously described in a Chinese family, in which the authors reported syncope and QT prolongation (Shao C et al. J. Huazhong Univ Sci Technol Med Sci. 2011;31(6):741-8). In the same study, functional in vitro analyses suggested that this variant may adversely affect the potassium channel, resulting in decreased current and repolarization. This variant has been seen in an exome cohort, but cardiovascular history was not provided (Amendola LM et al. Genome Res. 2015;25(3):305-15). This variant was previously reported in the SNPDatabase as rs375872367. Based on data from the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project (ESP), the A allele has an overall frequency of approximately 0.01% (1/13006) total alleles studied and 0.01% (1/8600) European American alleles. Based on data from ExAC, the A allele has an overall frequency less than 0.01% (1/97392). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
