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 Pathogenic:1Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingMolecular Diagnostic Laboratory for Inherited Cardiovascular Disease, Montreal Heart InstituteFeb 06, 2017- -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpJan 25, 2024This sequence change replaces serine, which is neutral and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 906 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Ser906Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473435, gnomAD 0.01%). This missense change has been observed in individuals with clinical features of long QT syndrome. It has been shown to exhibit reduced penetrance (PMID: 19716085, 26743238, 31737537, 36269083; Invitae). It has also been observed to segregate with disease in related individuals. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67429). 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. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 36269083). For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. -

Cardiac arrhythmia Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingColor Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color HealthNov 06, 2023This missense variant replaces serine with leucine at codon 906 of the KCNH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). A functional study has shown that this variant causes a reduction in current density in transfected HEK293 cells (PMID: 36269083). This variant has been reported in 15 unrelated individuals affected with long QT syndrome, idiopathic ventricular fibrillation, or suspected of having long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085, 26743238, 31737537, 31114860, 32893267, 36269083, ClinVar SCV000260666.6). It has been shown that this variant segregates with disease in multiple families of these individuals (PMID: 36269083). One of the probands carried a second known pathogenic variant in the KCNQ1 gene (PMID: 36269083), who had recurrent syncopal events during exercise and emotional stress. This variant has also been reported in an individual suspected of having Brugada syndrome as well as in a stillbirth case (PMID: 30615648, 36269083). This variant has been identified in 9/124636 chromosomes (6/45878 Non-Finnish European chromosomes, 0.0130%) in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the available evidence, this variant is classified as Likely Pathogenic. The elevated allele frequency of this variant in the general population suggests this variant may show reduced penetrance. -
Long QT syndrome 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingVictorian Clinical Genetics Services, Murdoch Childrens Research InstituteMay 06, 2021Based on the classification scheme VCGS_Germline_v1.3.4, this variant is classified as a VUS-3B . 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 serine to leucine. (I) 0251 - This variant is heterozygous. (I) 0302 - Variant is present in gnomAD (v2) <0.001 for a dominant condition (9 heterozygotes, 0 homozygotes). (SP) 0502 - Missense variant with conflicting in-silico predictions and uninformative conservation. (I) 0600 - Variant is located in an annotated domain or motif (C-terminal; PDB) (I) 0705 - No comparable missense variants have previous evidence for pathogenicity. (I) 0808 - Previous reports of pathogenicity for this variant are conflicting. This variant is listed in ClinVar five times as a VUS, has been reported in three LQTS patients (PMID: 19716085, PMID: 26743238, PMID: 31737537), a idiopathic ventricular fibrillation patient (PMID: 31114860) and in a stillbirth case (PMID: 30615648). (I) 0905 - No published segregation evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1007 - No published functional evidence has been identified for this variant. (I) 1208 - Inheritance information for this variant is not currently available in this individual. (I) Legend: (SP) - Supporting pathogenic, (I) - Information, (SB) - Supporting benign -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsApr 02, 2021The c.2717C>T (p.S906L) alteration is located in exon 12 (coding exon 12) of the KCNH2 gene. This alteration results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2717, causing the serine (S) at amino acid position 906 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -

KCNH2-related disorder Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, no assertion criteria providedclinical testingPreventionGenetics, part of Exact SciencesMay 24, 2024The KCNH2 c.2717C>T variant is predicted to result in the amino acid substitution p.Ser906Leu. This variant has been reported in multiple individuals with long QT syndrome (Table S2, Kapplinger et al. 2009. PubMed ID: 19716085; Supplemental Table, Marschall et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31737537), idiopathic ventricular fibrillation (Table 4, Blom et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 31114860), unspecified arrhythmogenic disorders (Table S1, Adler et al. 2016. PubMed ID: 26743238; Table S1, Copier et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36269083), and one case of stillbirth (Table S2, Sahlin et al. 2019. PubMed ID: 30615648). This variant was also found to co-occur with additional variants in genes associated with arrhythmogenic disorders (CACNA1C, PKP2, RYR2, and AKAP9), including an established pathogenic KCNQ1 p.Thr587Met variant (Table S1, Copier et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36269083). An in vitro experimental study suggests this variant affects the current density and activation gating of the channel protein (Figure 4, Copier et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36269083). This variant is reported in 0.013% of alleles in individuals of European (non-Finnish) descent in gnomAD and has conflicting interpretations of pathogenicity in ClinVar ranging from uncertain to pathogenic (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/67429/). This variant has been proposed to be associated reduced penetrance with variable clinical presentation (Copier et al. 2023. PubMed ID: 36269083). Although we suspect this variant may be pathogenic, at this time, the clinical significance of this variant is uncertain due to the absence of conclusive functional and genetic evidence. -
