Description

The p.His492Tyr variant in KCNH2 has been reported in the heterozygous state in at least 7 individuals with long QT syndrome (LQTS): 4 with congenital LQTS and 3 with drug induced LQTS (Inoue 2003, Itoh 2009, Hayashi 2016, Fujii 2017). The variant has also been reported in 7 individuals with a more severe phenotype who had a second variant in KCNH2 or another LQTS gene (Bando 2014, Fujii 2017). The p.His492Tyr variant segregated with disease in at least 5 affected relatives from 3 families; however the variant was also observed in unaffected family members (Itoh 2009, Bando 2014, Fujii 2017). In vitro functional studies suggest that the p.His492Tyr variant does not significantly impact protein function (Itoh 2009). This variant has been identified in 3/18394 East Asian chromosomes by gnomAD (http://gnomad.broadinstitute.org) and has been reported in ClinVar (Variation ID: 67204). Computational prediction tools and conservation analysis suggest that the p.His492Tyr variant may impact the protein, though this information is not predictive enough to determine pathogenicity. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, this variant meets criteria to be classified as likely pathogenic for autosomal dominant LQTS, though it may show reduced penetrance and a milder clinical presentation when observed in isolation and a more severe phenotype when observed in combination with other LQTS variants.
