Description

The p.R887H variant (also known as c.2660G>A), located in coding exon 11 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 2660. The arginine at codon 887 is replaced by histidine, an amino acid with highly similar properties. This variant was previously described in a long QT syndrome genetic testing cohort and in a primary electrical syndrome cohort (Tester et al. Heart Rhythm. 2005;2(5):507-17; Adler A et al. Circ Arrhythm Electrophysiol. 2016;9:e003440). In functional in vitro analyses, this variant adversely affected the potassium ion channel by inhibiting surface expression and current density (Donovan AJ et al. Mol Pharmacol. 2012;82(3):428-37). This amino acid position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In addition, this alteration is predicted to be deleterious by in silico analysis. Based on the majority of available evidence to date, this variant is likely to be pathogenic.
