| Description | Inherited arrhythmogenic syndromes are characterized by atypical ECG findings and high occurrence of arrhythmias. These syndromes are associated with mutations in various genes, most often encoding structure of cardiac ion channels. In this study, we focused on complex analysis of a mutation in the KCNQ1 gene associated with long QT syndrome type 1 (LQT1). This gene encodes a-subunit (Kv7.1) of the slowly activating delayed rectifier potassium (IKs) channel. |
