Proarrhythmic Consequences of a KCNQ1 AKAP-Binding Domain Mutation

Abstract excerpt

The KCNQ1-G589D gene mutation, associated with a long-QT syndrome, has been shown to disrupt yotiao-mediated targeting of protein kinase A and protein phosphatase-1 to the I(Ks) channel. To investigate how this defect may lead to ventricular arrhythmia during sympathetic stimulation, we use integrative computational models of beta-adrenergic signaling, myocyte excitation-contraction coupling, and action potential...
