Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1 PM2 PM5 PP3_Strong PP5_Moderate

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):​c.1280A>G​(p.Tyr427Cys) 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 Likely pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. Y427H) has been classified as Pathogenic.

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

Verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points.

• PM1: In a topological_domain Extracellular (size 25) in uniprot entity KCNH2_HUMAN there are 6 pathogenic changes around while only 1 benign (86%) in NM_000238.4
• PM2: Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage
• PM5: Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-150952703-A-G is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].
• PP3: MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.984
• PP5: Variant 7-150952702-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150952702-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 67179.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

The KCNH2 Tyr427Cys variant is located in the Transmembrane/ S1 domain. It has been reported in 2 long QT probands and was absent from 1300 controls (Itoh H, et al., 2016; Kapplinger, et al., 2009). The variant is absent in the 1000 genomes project (http://www.1000genomes.org/), as well as the Exome Aggregation Consortium dataset (http://exac.broadinstitute.org/). We have identified this variant in one long QT proband with no family history of disease or SCD. Interestingly, different rare variants at this position (Tyr427Ser and Tyr427His) have also been reported in long QT individuals, suggesting that an amino acid substitution at this site may not be tolerated. Computational tools SIFT, MutationTaster, and PolyPhen-2 predict this variant to have a deleterious effect. The variant was discussed at our multidisciplinary pathogenicity meeting and it was agreed based on the above evidence that it should be considered as "likely pathogenic". -
