Variant summary
Our verdict is Likely pathogenic. The variant received 7 ACMG points: 7P and 0B. PM1PM2PP2PP3_Moderate
The NM_000238.4(KCNH2):c.2681G>T(p.Arg894Leu) variant causes a missense change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.00000309 in 1,295,228 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Uncertain significance (★★). Another variant affecting the same amino acid position, but resulting in a different missense (i.e. R894H) has been classified as Likely benign.

Long QT syndrome Uncertain:2
This missense variant replaces arginine with leucine at codon 894 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual referred for long QT syndrome test (PMID: 19716085). This variant has been identified in 1/244078 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. -
This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 894 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg894Leu). This variant is present in population databases (rs199473668, gnomAD 0.0009%). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with clinical features of KCNH2-related conditions (PMID: 19716085). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67425). 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. 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. -
Cardiovascular phenotype Uncertain:1
The c.2681G>T (p.R894L) alteration is located in exon 11 (coding exon 11) of the KCNH2 gene. This alteration results from a G to T substitution at nucleotide position 2681, causing the arginine (R) at amino acid position 894 to be replaced by a leucine (L). Based on insufficient or conflicting evidence, the clinical significance of this alteration remains unclear. -
Cardiac arrhythmia Uncertain:1
This missense variant replaces arginine with leucine at codon 894 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). To our knowledge, functional studies have not been reported for this variant. This variant has been reported in an individual referred for long QT syndrome test (PMID: 19716085). This variant has been identified in 1/244078 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. -
Congenital long QT syndrome Other:1
This variant has been reported as associated with Long QT syndrome in the following publications (PMID:19716085). This is a literature report, and does not necessarily reflect the clinical interpretation of the Imperial College / Royal Brompton Cardiovascular Genetics laboratory. -
