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]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxJun 05, 2023Has not been reported in any individuals with arrhythmia, but identified in at least one individual in a control cohort (Kapa et al., 2009; Giudicessi et al., 2012).; In silico analysis supports that this missense variant has a deleterious effect on protein structure/function; This variant is associated with the following publications: (PMID: 25348405, 22581653, 22949429, 19841300) -
Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeJan 16, 2024This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 236 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Gly236Val). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KCNH2-related conditions (Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67518). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be disruptive. In summary, the available evidence is currently insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease. Therefore, it has been classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsDec 06, 2021The c.707G>T (p.G236V) alteration is located in exon 4 (coding exon 4) of the KCNH2 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 707, causing the glycine (G) at amino acid position 236 to be replaced by a valine (V). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
