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]

not specified Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxMar 05, 2018A variant of uncertain significance has been identified in the KCNH2 gene. The c.617_618delGCinsTT variant has not been published as pathogenic or been reported as benign to our knowledge. However, it has been observed in one other individual referred for LQTS genetic testing at GeneDx, although no segregation data are available. This variant is also not observed in large population cohorts (Lek et al., 2016). The c.617_618delGCinsTT variant results in the deletion of two base pairs, and insertion of two different base pairs, which leads to the replacement of a serine (S) residue with an isoleucine (I) residue at codon position 206, denoted S206I. The S206I variant is a non-conservative amino acid substitution, which is likely to impact secondary protein structure as these residues differ in polarity, charge, size and/or other properties. Nevertheless, in-silico analyses, including protein predictors and evolutionary conservation, support that this variant does not alter protein structure/function. -
Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeOct 31, 2022This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with isoleucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 206 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Ser206Ile). Information on the frequency of this variant in the gnomAD database is not available, as this variant may be reported differently in the database. This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNH2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 405339). 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: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available"). 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 27, 2023The c.617_618delGCinsTT variant (also known as p.S206I), located in coding exon 4 of the KCNH2 gene, results from an in-frame deletion of GC and insertion of TT at nucleotide positions 617 to 618. This results in the substitution of the serine residue for an isoleucine residue at codon 206, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be neutral by in silico analysis (Choi Y et al. PLoS ONE. 2012; 7(10):e46688). Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
