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]

Significance: Benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

Variant summary: The c.1224T>C (p.Tyr545=) in KCNH2 gene is a synonymous change that involves a non-conserved nucleotide. 4/5 programs in Alamut predict that this variant does not affect a normal splicing, however no functional studies supporting this notion were published at the time of evaluation. The variant is present in control population dataset of ExAC at a frequency of 0.00014 (16/118420 chrs tested), predominantly in individuals of East Asian descent (0.0013; 11/8596 chrs tested). These frequencies exceed the estimated maximal expected allele frequency of a pathogenic variant in KCNH2 gene (0.0001). The variant has not, to our knowledge, been reported in affected individuals or cited by a reputable database/clinical laboratory, but was reported as a polymorphism in healthy Chinese controls (Koo, 2006). Taking together, the variant was classified as Benign. -

Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina
Significance: Uncertain significance
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This variant was observed as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. A literature search was performed for the gene, cDNA change, and amino acid change (where applicable). Publications were found based on this search. However, the evidence from the literature, in combination with allele frequency data from public databases where available, was not sufficient to rule this variant in or out of causing disease. Therefore, this variant is classified as a variant of unknown significance. -

Significance: Likely benign
Review Status: criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method: clinical testing

This alteration is classified as likely benign based on a combination of the following: seen in unaffected individuals, population frequency, intact protein function, lack of segregation with disease, co-occurrence, RNA analysis, in silico models, amino acid conservation, lack of disease association in case-control studies, and/or the mechanism of disease or impacted region is inconsistent with a known cause of pathogenicity. -
