Description

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. 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 tolerated, but these predictions have not been confirmed by published functional studies and their clinical significance is uncertain. This variant has been observed in individual(s) with long QT syndrome (PMID: 19716085). ClinVar contains an entry for this variant (Variation ID: 67521). The frequency data for this variant in the population databases is considered unreliable, as metrics indicate insufficient coverage at this position in the ExAC database. This sequence change replaces arginine with glycine at codon 242 of the KCNH2 protein (p.Arg242Gly). The arginine residue is weakly conserved and there is a moderate physicochemical difference between arginine and glycine.
