Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points: 16P and 0B. PS3 PM1 PM2 PM5 PP2 PP3_Strong PP5

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.160T>C​(p.Tyr54His) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant was absent in control chromosomes in GnomAD project. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. 13/23 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV006020334: "In multiple assays testing KCNH2 function, this variant showed functionally abnormal results (Anderson CL et al. Nat Commun, 2014 Nov" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Y54S) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

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

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 16 ACMG points.

• PS3: PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV006020334: "In multiple assays testing KCNH2 function, this variant showed functionally abnormal results (Anderson CL et al. Nat Commun, 2014 Nov;5:5535; Ng CA et al. Am J Hum Genet, 2022 Jul;109:1208-1216)."
• PM1: In a hotspot region, there are 15 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 23 uncertain in NM_000238.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-150974857-T-G is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 3338719.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.
• PP2: Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 158 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 38 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.3724 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.4846 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to long QT syndrome 2, short QT syndrome type 1, short QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome, long QT syndrome.
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.992
• PP5: Variant 7-150974858-A-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150974858-A-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 67223.
