RCV000181948 | SCV000234251 | pathogenic | not provided | 2012-04-25 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | p.Arg100Gly (CGG>GGG): c.298 C>G in exon 2 of the KCNH2 gene (NM_000238.2). The Arg100Gly mutation in the KCNH2 gene has been reported in association with LQTS. Millat G et al. described a 41 year-old patient with a prolonged QT interval and history of torsade de pointes leading to ventricular fibrillation during exercise who harbored the Arg100Gly mutation in the KCNH2 gene as well as the Asp1819Asn mutation in the SCN5A gene. The authors reported both mutations were absent from 200 control chromosomes. Additionally, other mutations at the same codon (Arg100Gln, Arg100Trp) and nearby codons (Tyr99Ser, Lys101Glu, Asp102Ala, Asp102Val) have been reported in association with LQTS, supporting the functional importance of this region of the protein. Furthermore, the NHLBI ESP Exome Variant Server reports Arg100Gly was not observed in approximately 5,000 samples from individuals of European and African American backgrounds, indicating is not a common variant in these populations.Therefore, Arg100Gly in the KCNH2 gene is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. The variant is found in LQT panel(s). |
