Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 11 ACMG points: 11P and 0B. PM1PM2PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.371T>G​(p.Met124Arg) 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. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M124I) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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 11 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 2 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 1 benign, 16 uncertain in NM_000238.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
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, Brugada syndrome, short QT syndrome type 1, short QT syndrome, long QT syndrome.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.983
PP5
Variant 7-150959673-A-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150959673-A-C is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 67501.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Significance:Pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 124 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Met124Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 11854117, 16029385). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67501). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be tolerated. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 16029385). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of sequence changes on RNA splicing suggest that this variant may create or strengthen a splice site. For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -
