Variant summary
Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 13 ACMG points: 13P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP2PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate
The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.1418C>T(p.Thr473Ile) 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. 15/23 in silico tools predict a damaging 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. T473N) has been classified as Likely pathogenic.

The KCNH2 c.1418C>T; p.Thr473Ile variant, to our knowledge, is not reported in the medical literature or gene specific databases. Other variants at this codon (p.Thr473Pro, p.Thr473Asn), as well as an adjacent p.Thr474Ile variant, have been reported in individuals with Long QT syndrome and are considered pathogenic (Itoh 2010, Kapplinger 2009, Liu 2013, Tanaka 1997). Electrophysiological characterization of the p.Thr473Pro and p.Thr474Ile variants reveal dominant negative effects on channel activity and altered gating properties, respectively (Liu 2013, Zhou 1998), suggesting that the S2-S3 cytoplasmic loop containing Thr473 is functionally important. The c.1418C>T; p.Thr473Ile variant is absent from general population databases (1000 Genomes Project, Exome Variant Server, and Genome Aggregation Database), indicating it is not a common polymorphism. The threonine at codon 473 is highly conserved and computational analyses (SIFT, PolyPhen-2) predict that this variant is deleterious. Based on available information, this variant is considered to be likely pathogenic. References: Itoh H et al.
