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]

PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-150951580-G-A is described in ClinVar as Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 67283.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP2
Missense variant in the gene, where a lot of missense mutations are associated with disease in ClinVar. The gene has 158 curated pathogenic missense variants (we use a threshold of 10). The gene has 38 curated benign missense variants. Gene score misZ: 3.3724 (above the threshold of 3.09). Trascript score misZ: 2.4846 (below the threshold of 3.09). GenCC associations: The gene is linked to long QT syndrome 2, Brugada syndrome, short QT syndrome type 1, short QT syndrome, long QT syndrome.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.953
PP5
Variant 7-150951579-G-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150951579-G-A is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 67284.

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.3, this variant is classified as Likely pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0103 - Dominant negative and loss of function are known mechanisms of disease in this gene and are associated with Long QT syndrome 2 (MIM#613688). Gain of function is also a known mechanism associated with Short QT syndrome 1 (MIM#609620) (OMIM, PMID: 10753933; PMID: 21777565). (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (PMID: 20301308). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from proline to leucine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated pore region (PMID: 21956039). (I) 0704 - Another two missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case has limited previous evidence for pathogenicity. A different amino acid change to serine at the same position has been reported in a patient with Long QT syndrome 2 (ClinVar, PMID: 19716085). Additionally another change to histidine at the same position has been reported as VUS in ClinVar. (SP) 0802 - This variant has moderate previous evidence of pathogenicity in unrelated individuals. The variant has been previously reported in patients with Long QT syndrome (ClinVar, PMID: 19716085, 21956039). (SP) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1002 - This variant has moderate functional evidence supporting abnormal protein function. Functional studies using HEK293 cells show that this variant leads to deficient trafficking (PMID: 25417810). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Nov 24, 2017
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces proline with leucine at codon 605 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Pro605Leu). The proline residue is highly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between proline and leucine. This variant is not present in population databases (ExAC no frequency). This variant has not been reported in the literature in individuals with KCNH2-related disease. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67284). Experimental studies have shown that this missense change causes the KCNH2 protein to be trafficking-deficient (PMID: 25417810). 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. -
