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 2 Uncertain:3Benign:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Benign, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingStanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Stanford UniversityJul 18, 2011Note this variant was found in clinical genetic testing performed by one or more labs who may also submit to ClinVar. Thus any internal case data may overlap with the internal case data of other labs. The interpretation reviewed below is that of the Stanford Center for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease. KCNH2 p.Pro347Ser Given an MAF of 0.2% in unselected individuals and the location in the protein, we consider this variant likely benign. The proline at codon 347 is not conserved across species. The variant is in the N terminus of the channel. Variants in this region are less likely to be pathogenic than variants in the channel or C terminus (Kapa et al 2009). The variant was reported online in 156 of 55,452 individuals in the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/), which currently includes variant calls on ~64,000 individuals of European, African, Latino and Asian descent (as of September 16, 2015). Specifically, the variant was observed in 38 of 7642 South Asian individuals (MAF 0.2%)and 111 of 30,876 European indivdiuals. The phenotype of those individuals is not publicly available. The dataset is comprised of multiple cohorts, some of which were recruited from the general population, others were enriched for common cardiovascular disease. -
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineFeb 03, 2017Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: This variant is present in HGMD associated to LQTS in 9 papers, with comments suggesting Benign-VUS. It is classified in ClinVar with 1 star as Benign by Stanford and Invitae, Likely benign by Biesecker lab, and VUS by GeneDx and CSER. It has a Max MAF in ExAC of 0.24% (38 South Asian alleles) and in gnomAD of 0.25% (78 South Asian, 21 Ashkenazi, and 160 european alleles). -
Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJun 07, 2018This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
