Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. Variant got 12 ACMG points: 12P and 0B. PM1PM2PM5PP3_StrongPP5_Moderate

The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.1502A>G(p.Asp501Gly) 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 Pathogenic (★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. D501H) 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 Pathogenic. Variant got 12 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;
PM5
Other missense variant is known to change same aminoacid residue: Variant chr7-150952481-C-T is described in ClinVar as [Likely_pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 67208.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
PP3
MetaRNN computational evidence supports a deleterious effect, 0.995
PP5
Variant 7-150952480-T-C is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr7-150952480-T-C is described in ClinVar as [Pathogenic]. Clinvar id is 67210.Status of the report is criteria_provided_single_submitter, 1 stars.

Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingGeneDxAug 24, 2012p.Asp501Gly (GAC>GGC):c.1502 A>G in exon 6 of the KCNH2 gene (NM_000238.2)The Asp501Gly mutation in the KCNH2 gene has been reported previously in association with LQTS (Goldenberg I et al., 2011). In addition, the NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Asp501Gly was not observed in approximately 6,000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating it is not a common benign variant in these populations. Asp501Gly results in a non-conservative amino acid substitution of a negatively charged Aspartic acid with a non-polar Glycine at a residue that is conserved across species. Different mutations at the same codon (Asp501His, Asp501Asn) as well as mutations in a nearby codon (Tyr493Cys, Tyr493Phe, Tyr493Ser) have also been reported in association with LQTS, further supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein.In summary, Asp501Gly in the KCNH2 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). -
