Abstract excerpt
The SCN5A-encoded cardiac sodium channel underlies excitability in the heart, and dysfunction of sodium current (I(Na)) can cause fatal ventricular arrhythmia in maladies such as long QT syndrome, Brugada syndrome (BrS), and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). The gene GPD1L encodes the glycerol...
