KCNH2 Variant Q450E
Summary of observed carriers, functional annotations, and structural context for KCNH2 Q450E. Data combine curated literature, international cohorts, and gnomAD observations.

We have tested the trafficking efficiency of this variant: 56% of WT with a standard error of 36%. In our analysis we used SE < 20% as 'high quality'. Approximately below 50% of WT is considered PS3 moderate and below 30% is PS3 strong.
Variant features alone are equivalent to phenotyping 1 individuals with LQT2 and 9 unaffected individuals.
In silico predictors
| PROVEAN | PolyPhen-2 | BLAST-PSSM | REVEL | Penetrance Density LQT2 (%) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| -0.217 | 0.005 | 1 | 0.549 | 39 |
PROVEAN scores below -2 suggest deleterious impact. REVEL scores above 0.5–0.75 are often interpreted as likely pathogenic. PolyPhen-2 scores above 0.85 are typically pathogenic. BLAST-PSSM reflects evolutionary conservation; more negative values indicate rarer substitutions. Penetrance density summarises neighbouring residue risk (Kroncke et al. 2019).
Reported carrier data
| Source | Year | Carriers | Unaffected | LQT2 | Other Disease |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Literature, cohort, and gnomAD | – | 0 | 0 | 0 | – |
| Variant features alone | – | 10 | 9 | 1 | – |
Totals may differ from individual publications due to duplicate patients removed during curation.
Nearby variants
Neighbouring residues within 15 Ångström provide structural context. Variants listed in the right-most column have been observed clinically or in gnomAD. Note that some residues appear multiple times at different distances since the functional KV11.1 channel (protein product of KCNH2/hERG) is a homotetramer and occasionally the same residue from multiple subunits is present within the 15Å window.
