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]

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 25 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 29 uncertain 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 chr7-150951505-C-T is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 222669.
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, 0.969
PP5
Variant 7-150951505-C-G is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150951505-C-G is described in ClinVar as Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity. ClinVar VariationId is 67318.

Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.3, this variant is classified as likely pathogenic. Following criteria are met: 0102 - Loss of function is a known mechanism of disease in this gene and is associated with long QT syndrome type 2. (I) 0107 - This gene is associated with autosomal dominant disease. (I) 0112 - The condition associated with this gene has incomplete penetrance (GeneReviews). (I) 0200 - Variant is predicted to result in a missense amino acid change from valine to leucine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0301 - Variant is absent from gnomAD (both v2 and v3). (SP) 0309 - An alternative amino acid change at the same position has been observed in gnomAD (v2) (7 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (I) 0501 - Missense variant consistently predicted to be damaging by multiple in silico tools or highly conserved with a major amino acid change. Highly conserved, minor amino acid change. (SP) 0600 - Variant is located in the annotated pore domain (PDB). (I) 0703 – Other missense variants comparable to the one identified in this case have moderate previous evidence for pathogenicity. p.(Val630Ile) has two likely pathogenic entries in ClinVar and has been classified as pathogenic in a sudden arrhythmic death patient (PMID: 28449774). p.(Val630Ala) has been reported in two LQTS patients, one being de novo (PMID: 15840476, 9693036). (SP) 0803 - This variant has limited previous evidence of pathogenicity in an unrelated individuals. This variant has been identified in a Japanese LQTS patient (PMID: 9024139) and has one ClinVar entry (no classification provided). (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 evidence shows that this variant decreases slope conductance and negatively shifts steady-state inactivation (PMID: 9721698). (SP) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -

Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

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. This variant disrupts the p.Val630 amino acid residue in KCNH2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 9693036, 16432067, 23303164). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 9721698, 16432067, 23303164). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Possibly Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67318). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 9024139). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This sequence change replaces valine, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 630 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Val630Leu). -
