Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PVS1PM2PP5

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.1261del(p.Thr421ArgfsTer13) variant causes a frameshift change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (no stars). Synonymous variant affecting the same amino acid position (i.e. T421T) has been classified as Likely benign. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

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]
