Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: C-terminal KCNH2 mutations are commonly associated with a more benign clinical presentation, but mutations localized in close proximity may exhibit different clinical and biophysical phenotypes. The value of detailed cellular characterization of such mutant channels in vitro has not been studied with respect to clinical risk stratification of affected patients. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was...
