Functional and clinical characterization of KCNJ2 mutations associated with LQT7 (Andersen syndrome)

TL;DR: The functional consequences of three novel and seven previously described KCNJ2 mutations using a two-microelectrode voltage-clamp technique and correlated the findings with the clinical phenotype suggest that the substrate for arrhythmia susceptibility in AS is distinct from the other forms of inherited LQT syndrome.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dihydropyridine receptor mutations cause hypokalemic periodic paralysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a dihydropyridine (DHP) receptor gene was identified as the hypokalemic periodic paralysis (hypoKPP) gene, which is an autosomal dominant skeletal muscle disorder with low serum potassium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlating phenotype and genotype in the periodic paralyses

TL;DR: This series of 226 patients (127 kindreds) confirms some clinical features of this disorder with notable exceptions: in this series, patients without mutations had a less typical clinical presentation including an older age at onset, no changes in diet as a precipitant, and absence of vacuolar myopathy on muscle biopsy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of genetic variants associated with Huntington's disease progression: a genome-wide association study

Davina J. Hensman Moss, +734 more
- 01 Sep 2017 - 
TL;DR: A novel measure of disease progression and a genome-wide significant signal on chromosome 5 spanning three genes: MSH3, DHFR, and MTRNR2L2 is generated, suggesting this mechanism as an area for future therapeutic investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

The gene for paroxysmal non-kinesigenic dyskinesia encodes an enzyme in a stress response pathway

TL;DR: Bioinformatic analysis reveals that the MR-1 gene is homologous to the hydroxyacylglutathione hydrolase (HAGH) gene, which functions in a pathway to detoxify methylglyoxal, a compound present in coffee and alcoholic beverages and produced as a by-product of oxidative stress.
