Description

The c.2962+1delG variant in KCNH2 has not been previously reported in individuals with long QT syndrome or in large population studies. This variant occurs in the invariant region (+/- 1,2) of the splice consensus sequence and is predicted to cause altered splicing leading to an abnormal or absent protein. Heterozygous loss of function of the KCNH2 gene is associated with long QT syndrome. In summary, although additional studies are required to fully establish its clinical significance, the c.2962+1delG variant is likely pathogenic for long QT syndrome in an autosomal dominant manner based on its predicted impact to the protein.
