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]

p.Ile42Thr (ATC>ACC): c.125 T>C in exon 2 of the KCNH2 (aka HERG) gene (NM_000238.2)While the Ile42Thr mutation in the KCNH2 gene has not been reported to our knowledge, a mutation affecting this same codon, Ile42Asn, has been reported in association with LQTS (Chung S et al., 2007). Additionally, mutations in nearby residues (Val41Ala, Val41Phe, Tyr43Asp, Tyr43Cys, Cys44Phe, Cys44Trp) have been reported in association with LQTS, further supporting the functional importance of this codon and this region of the protein. Ile42Thr results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a non-polar Isoleucine with a polar Threonine at a position that is conserved across species. In silico analysis predicts Ile42Thr is damaging to the protein structure/function. Furthermore, the Ile42Thr 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, Ile42Thr in the KCNH2 gene is interpreted as a likely disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -

This sequence change replaces isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, with threonine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 42 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Ile42Thr). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Long QT Syndrome (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 200546). 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. This variant disrupts the p.Ile42 amino acid residue in KCNH2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been observed in individuals with KCNH2-related conditions (PMID: 17905336, 25417810, 31557540, 32475984), which suggests that this may be a clinically significant amino acid residue. 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. -
