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]

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxNov 20, 2013p.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). -
