Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points: 23P and 0B. PS3PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.1682C>T​(p.Ala561Val) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.000000684 in 1,461,748 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. 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 Likely pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV000234109: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as A561V leads to ion channel suppression (Kagan et al., 2000" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. A561T) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 23 ACMG points.

PS3
PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV000234109: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect as A561V leads to ion channel suppression (Kagan et al., 2000; Anderson et al., 2006; Li et al., 2007); SCV000283966: Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 12354768, 16432067, 17445409, 23303164, 24623279).; SCV000737720: Functional studies indicate this alteration results in deficient protein trafficking and altered ion channel function (Anderson CL et al. Circulation. 2006;113:365-73; Jou CJ et al. Circ Res. 2013;112:826-30; Mehta A et al. Cardiovasc Res. 2014;102:497-506; Li G et al. Mol Med Rep. 2016;13:2467-75).; SCV004241648: Multiple studies have shown that this variant impairs normal protein function (examples : Anderson_2006, Li_2007, Jou_2013).
