Genes affected
KCNE2 (HGNC:6242): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily E regulatory subunit 2) Voltage-gated potassium (Kv) channels represent the most complex class of voltage-gated ion channels from both functional and structural standpoints. Their diverse functions include regulating neurotransmitter release, heart rate, insulin secretion, neuronal excitability, epithelial electrolyte transport, smooth muscle contraction, and cell volume. This gene encodes a member of the potassium channel, voltage-gated, isk-related subfamily. This member is a small integral membrane subunit that assembles with the KCNH2 gene product, a pore-forming protein, to alter its function. This gene is expressed in heart and muscle and the gene mutations are associated with cardiac arrhythmia. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 01, 2021Variant summary: KCNE2 c.79C>A (p.Arg27Ser) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in 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 251466 control chromosomes. The available data on variant occurrences in the general population are insufficient to allow any conclusion about variant significance. c.79C>A has been reported in the literature in at-least one individual affected with Arrhythmia in a study cohort of index cases and families among surveyed inherited arrythmia clinics and the Rochester Long-QT syndrome registry (example, Roberts_2017). This report does not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia/LQT6. At-least one co-occurrence with another pathogenic variant has been observed at our laboratory (PKP2 c.2489+1G>A), providing supporting evidence for a benign role. To our knowledge, no experimental evidence demonstrating an impact on protein function has been reported. No clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014. Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as uncertain significance. -
Long QT syndrome 6 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpMar 20, 2022In 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. Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function (SIFT, PolyPhen-2, Align-GVGD) all suggest that this variant is likely to be disruptive. ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 1172865). This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 28794082). This variant is present in population databases (no rsID available, gnomAD 0.0009%). This sequence change replaces arginine, which is basic and polar, with serine, which is neutral and polar, at codon 27 of the KCNE2 protein (p.Arg27Ser). -
