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 was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 14 ACMG points.

PVS1
Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
Splicing predictors support a deleterious effect. Scorers claiming Pathogenic: max_spliceai. No scorers claiming Uncertain. No scorers claiming Benign.
PP5
Variant 7-150974717-T-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150974717-T-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 200586.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

p.Lys101Stop (AAA>TAA): c.301 A>T in exon 2 of the KCNH2 (HERG) gene (NM_000238.2)The Lys101Stop mutation in the KCNH2 gene has not been reported as a disease-causing mutation or as a benign polymorphism to our knowledge. Lys101Stop is predicted to cause loss of normal protein function either by protein truncation or nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Other nonsense mutations in the KCNH2 gene have been reported in association with LQTS.In summary, Lys101Stop in the KCNH2 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -
