Variant summary

Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points: 9P and 0B. PM1PM2PP3_StrongPP5

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.2246G>T(p.Gly749Val) 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. 13/21 in silico tools predict a damaging outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Conflicting classifications of pathogenicity (no stars). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. G749C) has been classified as Uncertain significance.

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

Classification made for transcript

Verdict is Likely_pathogenic. Variant got 9 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 3 aminoacids with missense pathogenic changes in the window of +-8 aminoacids around while only 0 benign, 7 uncertain in NM_000238.4
PM2
Very rare variant in population databases, with high coverage;
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.962
PP5
Variant 7-150950320-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150950320-C-A is described in ClinVar as [Conflicting_classifications_of_pathogenicity]. Clinvar id is 67378.We mark this variant Likely_pathogenic, oryginal submissions are: {Uncertain_significance=1, Pathogenic=1, not_provided=1}. Variant chr7-150950320-C-A is described in Lovd as [Pathogenic].

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxFeb 25, 2014p.Gly749Val (GGC>GTC): c.2246 G>T in exon 9 of the KCNH2 gene (NM_000238.2)The G749V mutation in the KCNH2 gene has been reported previously in association with LQTS. The G749V mutation was reported in one patient with LQTS, and was not detected in >2,600 reference alleles (Kapplinger et al., 2009). Other missense mutations affecting nearby residues (R744P, R752Q) have been reported in association with LQTS, supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Furthermore, the G749V mutation was not observed in approximately 6,500 individuals of European and African American ancestry in the NHLBI Exome Sequencing Project, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. In summary, G749V in the KCNH2 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -
