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 was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 19 ACMG points.

PM1
In a hotspot region, there are 8 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 chr7-150951679-C-G is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 14429.Status of the report is no_assertion_criteria_provided, 0 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, 0.993
PP5
Variant 7-150951678-C-A is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150951678-C-A is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic/Likely_pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 67251.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.

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

The Gly572Val variant in the KCNH2 gene has been reported previously in one individual with LQTS and it was absent from more than 2,600 reference alleles. Also, the NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Gly572Val was not observed in approximately 5,000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Variants in this codon (Gly572Arg, Gly572Asp, Gly572Cys, Gly572Ser) and in nearby codons (Ile571Leu, Ile571Val, Met574Val) have been reported in association with LQTS, further supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. -

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

This sequence change replaces glycine, which is neutral and non-polar, with valine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 572 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Gly572Val). This variant is not present in population databases (gnomAD no frequency). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085, 22949429; Invitae). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67251). 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 disruptive. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 25417810). This variant disrupts the p.Gly572 amino acid residue in KCNH2. Other variant(s) that disrupt this residue have been determined to be pathogenic (PMID: 15176425, 19490267, 22949429, 27803431). This suggests that this residue is clinically significant, and that variants that disrupt this residue are likely to be disease-causing. In summary, the currently available evidence indicates that the variant is pathogenic, but additional data are needed to prove that conclusively. Therefore, this variant has been classified as Likely Pathogenic. -
