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]

Long QT syndrome

Uncertain:2

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp	Sep 13, 2022	This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 784 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg784Trp). This variant is present in population databases (rs12720441, gnomAD 0.002%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of long QT syndrome (PMID: 11997281, 15840476, 19841300, 22949429). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 14433). 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: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 11997281, 25417810). 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health	Aug 06, 2024	This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 784 of the KCNH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have a deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). In vitro experimental functional studies have shown that this variant may result in deficient protein trafficking (PMID: 25417810), reduced channel current (PMID: 11997281) and faster channel deactivation compared to wild type (PMID: 19172259). This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 19841300, 22949429) and in an individual suspected to be affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 15840476). This variant has also been reported in two individuals affected with drug-induced torsades de pointes, a form of ventricular tachycardia (PMID: 11997281, 24223155). This variant has been identified in 3/282186 chromosomes 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. -

The c.2350C>T (p.R784W) alteration is located in exon 9 (coding exon 9) of the KCNH2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2350, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 784 to be replaced by a tryptophan (W). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

The KCNH2 c.2350C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Arg784Trp. This variant was reported in individuals with long QT syndrome (KCNH2 gene described as HERG, Yang et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11997281; Tester et al. 2005. PubMed ID: 15840476; Table S2, Giudicessi et al. 2012. PubMed ID: 22949429). Functional analyses suggest that this variant may result in destabilization of the resultant protein and a reduction in channel activity, and authors of one study speculated that this could be a mild variant (Yang et al. 2002. PubMed ID: 11997281; Anderson et al. 2014. PubMed ID: 25417810). However, this variant has also been documented in the general population and in a cohort of asymptomatic individuals with no prior history of cardiovascular events (Table S1, Chen et al. 2018. PubMed ID: 30662450; Lacaze et al. 2021. PubMed ID: 34135346). This variant is reported in 0.0023% of alleles in individuals of European (Non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD. At this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
