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 made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_benign. Variant got -5 ACMG points.

BP4
Computational evidence support a benign effect (MetaRNN=0.05183789).
BS2
High AC in GnomAd4 at 6 AD,Digenic gene. Variant has AC lower than other variant known as pathogenic in the gene, so the strength is limited to Supporting.

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterresearchBiesecker Lab/Clinical Genomics Section, National Institutes of HealthJun 24, 2013- -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxDec 01, 2016The Gly852Arg variant in the KCNH2 gene has not been reported previously as a disease-causing mutation nor as a benign polymorphism, to our knowledge. Gly852Arg results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a non-polar Glycine with a positively charged Arginine. The NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Gly852Arg was not observed in approximately 5,000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. However, the Gly852Arg variant occurs in an alternative transcript where no mutations have been reported to date. As the expression pattern of this alternative transcript of KCNH2 is unknown, it is not possible to predict whether this variant is clinically significant or a benign variant.In summary, the clinical significance of Gly852Arg in the KCNH2 gene is currently unknown. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingARUP Laboratories, Molecular Genetics and Genomics, ARUP LaboratoriesApr 06, 2021The KCNH2 c.2554G>A; p.Gly852Arg variant (rs139247073), also known as c.2398+156G>A in transcript NM_000238.3, is not to our knowledge reported in the medical literature but is reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 191471). This variant is found in the general population with an overall allele frequency of 0.01% (15/183572 alleles) in the Genome Aggregation Database. The glycine at codon 852 is moderately conserved, and computational analyses are uncertain whether this variant is neutral or deleterious (REVEL: 0.257). Due to limited information, the clinical significance of the p.Gly852Arg variant is uncertain at this time. -
