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]

Submissions by phenotype

not specified Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLaboratory for Molecular Medicine, Mass General Brigham Personalized MedicineJun 23, 2016Variant identified in a genome or exome case(s) and assessed due to predicted null impact of the variant or pathogenic assertions in the literature or databases. Disclaimer: This variant has not undergone full assessment. The following are preliminary notes: Reported in 2 probands but also found in controls - Multiple reports question pathogenicity; ClinVar: 2 VUS -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingWomen's Health and Genetics/Laboratory Corporation of America, LabCorpJun 15, 2020Variant summary: KCNH2 c.2750C>T (p.Pro917Leu) results in a non-conservative amino acid change in the encoded protein sequence. Three of five in-silico tools predict a benign effect of the variant on protein function. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 8e-05 in 124454 control chromosomes. This frequency is not significantly higher than expected for a pathogenic variant in KCNH2 causing Arrhythmia (8e-05 vs 0.0001), allowing no conclusion about variant significance. c.2750C>T has been reported in the literature in individuals affected with Arrhythmia (Splawski_2000, Moss_2002, Shimizu_2009). These report(s) do not provide unequivocal conclusions about association of the variant with Arrhythmia. At least one publication reports experimental evidence evaluating an impact on protein function. These results showed no damaging effect of this variant (Jou_2013). Five clinical diagnostic laboratories have submitted clinical-significance assessments for this variant to ClinVar after 2014 without evidence for independent evaluation (likely benign n=1, VUS n=4). Based on the evidence outlined above, the variant was classified as VUS-possibly benign. -
Long QT syndrome Uncertain:2
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAll of Us Research Program, National Institutes of HealthFeb 05, 2024This missense variant replaces proline with leucine at codon 917 of the KCNH2 protein. Computational prediction is inconclusive regarding the impact of this variant on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold 0.5 < inconclusive < 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. A functional study has shown that this variant does not alter the channel function in zebrafish cardiac assay (PMID: 23303164). This variant has been reported in two individuals affected with long QT syndrome (PMID: 10973849, 11854117), as well as in unaffected controls (PMID: 17161064, 19841300). This variant has been identified in 7/122966 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. -
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingLabcorp Genetics (formerly Invitae), LabcorpNov 02, 2023This sequence change replaces proline, which is neutral and non-polar, with leucine, which is neutral and non-polar, at codon 917 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Pro917Leu). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate poor data quality at this position in the gnomAD database. This missense change has been observed in individual(s) with Long QT syndrome (PMID: 10973849, 11854117, 19926013). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67432). Algorithms developed to predict the effect of missense changes on protein structure and function output the following: SIFT: "Not Available"; PolyPhen-2: "Benign"; Align-GVGD: "Not Available". The leucine amino acid residue is found in multiple mammalian species, which suggests that this missense change does not adversely affect protein function. Experimental studies have shown that this missense change does not substantially affect KCNH2 function (PMID: 23303164). 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. -

Long QT syndrome 2 Uncertain:1
Uncertain significance, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingIllumina Laboratory Services, IlluminaApr 27, 2017This 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. -

Cardiovascular phenotype Benign:1
Likely benign, criteria provided, single submitterclinical testingAmbry GeneticsJul 11, 2018This 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. -
