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:2
Jul 20, 2024
All of Us Research Program, National Institutes of Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 922 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). Electrophysiological functional studies suggest that the variant may not impact KCNH2 function (PMID: 16432067); the clinical relevance of this observation is unknown. This variant has been reported in individuals with suspected long QT syndrome (PMID: 10973849, 15051636, 19841299); one of these individuals also carried a pathogenic variant in the KCNQ1 gene that could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 19841299). This variant has been identified in 3/126824 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -

Labcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), Labcorp
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 922 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg922Trp). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with prolonged QT interval (PMID: 10973849). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67435). 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 does not substantially affect KCNH2 function (PMID: 16432067, 23303164). 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. -

Cardiac arrhythmia Uncertain:1

Color Diagnostics, LLC DBA Color Health
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This missense variant replaces arginine with tryptophan at codon 922 of the KCNH2 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function. A functional study has shown the mutant protein to exhibit normal channel function (PMID: 16432067). This variant has been reported in individuals with suspected long QT syndrome (PMID: 10973849, 15051636, 19841299). One of these individuals also carried a pathogenic variant in the KCNQ1 gene that could explain the observed phenotype (PMID: 19841299). This variant has been identified in 3/126824 chromosomes in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. -
