Variant summary
Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 2 ACMG points: 3P and 1B. PP2PP3_ModerateBS2_Supporting
The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.959C>T(p.Ser320Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000479 in 1,461,722 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. S320W) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

Long QT syndrome 2 Uncertain:1
This sequence change in KCNH2 is predicted to replace serine with leucine at codon 320, p.(Ser320Leu). The serine residue is highly conserved (100 vertebrates, UCSC), and is located in the N-terminus region, amino acids 306-403, which is defined as a mutational hot spot (PMID: 32893267). There is a large physicochemical difference between serine and leucine. The variant is present in a single European (non-Finnish) individual in the population database gnomAD v2.1 (1/113,016 alleles). This variant has been reported in at least three probands with long QT syndrome (PMID: 15840476, 18441445, 19695459). Computational evidence predicts a deleterious effect for the missense substitution (REVEL = 0.846). Based on the classification scheme RMH Modified ACMG/AMP Guidelines v1.6.1, this variant is classified as a VARIANT OF UNCERTAIN SIGNIFICANCE. Following criteria are met: PM1_Supporting, PM2_Supporting, PP3, PS4_Supporting. -
Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 320 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Ser320Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs199472886, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of long QT syndrome (PMID: 15840476, 19695459, 32893267). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67550). 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The c.959C>T (p.S320L) alteration is located in exon 5 (coding exon 5) of the KCNH2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 959, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 320 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
