摘要: The long QT syndrome (LQT) is an inherited cardiac disorder that can cause sudden death among apparently healthy young individuals due to malignant ventricular arrhythmias. LQT was found be caused by mutations in four genes LQT1, LQT2, LQT3 and LQT5, linkage reported for additional locus, LQT4, on chromosome 4q25-27. We have studied a large (n=131) LQT-affected Jewish kindred identified tight between the status (lod score 6.13, with estimated recombination fraction of zero). new point-mutation, A G substitution at nucleotide 5519 SCN5A gene, changing aspartate 1840 glycine, D1840G. This non-conservative change amino acid completely conserved sodium channels from Molusca human. mutation all affected (n=23), not unaffected family members (n=40), 200 chromosomes control individuals. 3/12 equivocal phenotype, thus, providing accurate diagnostic tool members. currently being used cellular electrophysiological model, characterize function mutated channel this syndrome.
