Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. Variant got 3 ACMG points: 3P and 0B. PM2PP3

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.872T>G(p.Met291Arg) variant causes a missense change. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000233 in 1,288,204 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. M291T) 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]

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingInvitaeDec 14, 2023This sequence change replaces methionine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 291 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Met291Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals affected with KCNH2-related conditions. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 374955). 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 tolerated. 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. -
