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

Verdict is Benign. Variant got -19 ACMG points.

• BP4: Computational evidence support a benign effect (BayesDel_noAF=-0.42).
• BP6: Variant 7-150952515-G-A is Benign according to our data. Variant chr7-150952515-G-A is described in ClinVar as [Benign]. Clinvar id is 255614.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars. Variant chr7-150952515-G-A is described in Lovd as [Benign].
• BP7: Synonymous conserved (PhyloP=-0.955 with no splicing effect.
• BA1: GnomAd4 highest subpopulation (EAS) allele frequency at 95% confidence interval = 0.627 is higher than 0.05.

It has been identified in 26.3% (1158/4406) of African American chromosomes from a broad population by the NHLBI Exome Sequenc ing Project (http://evs.gs.washington.edu/EVS; dbSNP rs740952). -

Long QT syndrome 2 Benign:2

Benign, criteria provided, single submitter	clinical testing	Illumina Laboratory Services, Illumina	Jan 13, 2018	This variant was observed in the ICSL laboratory as part of a predisposition screen in an ostensibly healthy population. It had not been previously curated by ICSL or reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database (HGMD: prior to June 1st, 2018), and was therefore a candidate for classification through an automated scoring system. Utilizing variant allele frequency, disease prevalence and penetrance estimates, and inheritance mode, an automated score was calculated to assess if this variant is too frequent to cause the disease. Based on the score and internal cut-off values, a variant classified as benign is not then subjected to further curation. The score for this variant resulted in a classification of benign for this disease. -
