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]

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:1
Sep 29, 2024
Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with arginine, which is basic and polar, at codon 879 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Gly879Arg). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 20851114). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67421). An algorithm developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (PolyPhen-2) suggests that this variant is likely to be tolerated. 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1

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

The p.G879R variant (also known as c.2635G>C), located in coding exon 11 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a G to C substitution at nucleotide position 2635. The glycine at codon 879 is replaced by arginine, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in a long QT syndrome cohort; however, clinical details were limited (Millat G et al. Clin Chim Acta, 2011 Jan;412:203-7). This amino acid position is well conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, the in silico prediction for this alteration is inconclusive. Since supporting evidence is limited at this time, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
