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:2
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpSep 09, 2022For these reasons, this variant has been classified as Pathogenic. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change affects KCNH2 function (PMID: 11741928, 16432067, 23303164). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function are either unavailable or do not agree on the potential impact of this missense change (SIFT: "Deleterious"; PolyPhen-2: "Probably Damaging"; Align-GVGD: "Class C0"). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67402). This missense change has been observed in individuals with long QT syndrome (PMID: 10973849, 11854117, 16831322, 19695459, 19716085, 23158531, 23631430). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473538, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with tryptophan, which is neutral and slightly polar, at codon 823 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg823Trp). -
Pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpNov 07, 2021Variant summary: KCNH2 c.2467C>T (p.Arg823Trp) results in a non-conservative amino acid change located in the Cyclic nucleotide-binding domain of the encoded protein sequence. Five of five in-silico tools predict a damaging effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 4e-06 in 251454 control chromosomes. c.2467C>T has been reported in the literature in multiple individuals and families affected with Long QT Syndrome (eg. Splawski_2000, Moss_2002, Lieve_2013). These data indicate that the variant is very likely to be associated with disease. In experimental studies, the variant was found to result in deficient trafficking, reduced repolarization, and inability to be rescued by channel blockers (Jou_2013, Anderson_2006, Ficker_2002). Four clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation. All laboratories classified the variant as pathogenic/likely pathogenic. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as pathogenic. -
Congenital long QT syndrome Pathogenic:1Other:1
not provided, no classification providedliterature onlyCardiovascular Biomedical Research Unit, Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust-This variant has been reported as associated with Long QT syndrome in the following publications (PMID:10973849;PMID:11854117;PMID:16432067;PMID:16831322;PMID:19716085;PMID:11741928). This is a literature report, and does not necessarily reflect the clinical interpretation of the Imperial College / Royal Brompton Cardiovascular Genetics laboratory. -
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 12, 2017The p.Arg823Trp variant in KCNH2 has been reported in >10 individuals with long QT syndrome (Splawski 2000, Moss 2002, Kapplinger 2009, Nishio 2009, Crotti 2012 , Lieve 2013, Itoh 2016, ClinVar Variation ID 67402) and has also been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID 67402). In vitro functional studies provide some eviden ce that the p.Arg823Trp variant may impact protein function (Ficker 2002, Roti 2 002, Anderson 2006). The p.Arg823Trp variant has also been identified in 1/11170 2 of European chromosomes by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD, http://gno mad.broadinstitute.org/; dbSNP rs199473538). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the variant may impact the protein, though th is information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical signifi cance, the p.Arg823Trp variant is likely pathogenic. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Pathogenic:1
Likely pathogenic, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsFeb 20, 2019The p.R823W variant (also known as c.2467C>T), located in coding exon 10 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a C to T substitution at nucleotide position 2467. The arginine at codon 823 is replaced by tryptophan, an amino acid with dissimilar properties. This alteration has been reported in a number of patients with long QT syndrome (Splawski I et al, Circulation 2000 Sep; 102(10):1178-85; Moss AJ et al, Circulation 2002 Feb; 105(7):794-9; Kapplinger JD et al, Heart Rhythm 2009 Sep; 6(9):1297-303; Nishio Y et al, J. Am. Coll. Cardiol. 2009 Aug; 54(9):812-9; Crotti L et al, J. Am. Coll. Cardiol. 2012 Dec; 60(24):2515-24; Itoh H et al, Eur. J. Hum. Genet. 2015 Dec; Izumi G et al, Pediatr Cardiol 2016 Apr). Studies in cultured cell lines and zebrafish embryos suggested this alteration causes protein traffic deficiency that would compromise channel functions (Ficker E et al, J. Biol. Chem. 2002 Feb; 277(7):4989-98; Anderson CL et al, Circulation 2006 Jan; 113(3):365-73; Jou CJ et al, Circ. Res. 2013 Mar; 112(5):826-30). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic. -
