Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 18 ACMG points: 18P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Very_Strong

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.1882G>C(p.Gly628Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Likely pathogenic (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G628A) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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]

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 26, 2018The p.G628R variant (also known as c.1882G>C), located in coding exon 7 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 1882. The glycine at codon 628 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration impacts the highly conserved ion selectivity filter (SVGFGN) located between transmembrane helices S5 and S6. This variant was detected in an individual reported to have long QT syndrome (LQTS) (Yoshinaga M et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol, 2014 Feb;7:107-12). Internal structural analysis indicates that this variant disrupts the ion channel pore and is expected to eliminate the K+ selectivity of the K+ channel (Tao X et al. Science. 2009;326(5960):1668-74; Whorton MR and MacKinnon R. Cell. 2011;147(1):199-208; Ambry internal data). Other variants affecting this amino acid (p.G628V, p.G628S, p.G628A, p.G628D) have also been reported in association with LQTS (Tester DJ et al. Heart Rhythm, 2005 May;2:507-17; Horigome H et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol, 2010 Feb;3:10-7; Kato K et al. J. Cardiovasc. Electrophysiol, 2014 Jan;25:66-73). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
