Journal ArticleDOI

Coassembly of K(V)LQT1 and minK (IsK) proteins to form cardiac I(Ks) potassium channel.

TL;DR: KVLQT1 is the subunit that coassembles with minK to form IKS channels and IKS dysfunction is a cause of cardiac arrhythmia, and is shown to encode a K+ channel with biophysical properties unlike other known cardiac currents.
Journal ArticleDOI

SCN5A mutations associated with an inherited cardiac arrhythmia, long QT syndrome

TL;DR: Genetic linkage between LQT3 and polymorphisms within SCN5A, the cardiac sodium channel gene, and single strand conformation polymorphism and DNA sequence analyses suggest that mutations in SCN 5A cause chromosome 3-linked LQt and indicate a likely cellular mechanism for this disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spectrum of Mutations in Long-QT Syndrome Genes KVLQT1, HERG, SCN5A, KCNE1, and KCNE2

TL;DR: KVLQT1 and HERG accounted for 87% of identified mutations, and SCN5A, KCNE1, and KCNE2 accounted for the other 13%, and Missense mutations were most common, followed by frameshift mutations, in-frame deletions, and nonsense and splice-site mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic organization of the human SCN5A gene encoding the cardiac sodium channel.

TL;DR: This work establishes the complete genomic organization of SCN5A and will enable high-resolution analyses of this locus for mutations associated with LQT and other phenotypes for which SCN 5A may be a candidate gene.
