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 significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Jun 03, 2022	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 (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405343). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNH2-related conditions. This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with cysteine, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 397 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg397Cys). -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health	Dec 01, 2023	This missense variant replaces arginine with cysteine at codon 397 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 32893267). This variant has not been identified 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. -

clinical testing

Petrovsky National Research Centre of Surgery, The Federal Agency for Scientific Organizations

Mar 20, 2023

We observed a c.1189C>T (p.R397C) genetic variant in the KCNH2 gene in a 18-y.o. asymptomatic male proband with spontaneous Brugada-pattern on ECG. This variant is not present in LOVD database, not observed at significant frequency in large population cohorts (gnomAD v3.1.2). Multiple computational resources predict deleterious effect of p.R397C genetic variant. We found that HEK cells transfected with KCNH2-R397C plasmid have facilitated activation of the HERG channels, and hampered their inactivation, suggesting that p.R397C is a gain-of-function mutation (PMID: 38648771). Based on this evidence, we consider it to classify the c.1189C>T (p.R397C) variant as Likely Pathogenic. -

The p.R397C variant (also known as c.1189C>T), located in coding exon 6 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 1189. The arginine at codon 397 is replaced by cysteine, an amino acid with highly dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in a long QT syndrome cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Walsh R et al. Genet Med, 2021 Jan;23:47-58). This amino acid position is not well 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. -
