Abstract excerpt
The human cardiac fast transient outward K+ channel is composed of the KV4.3 α subunit encoded by KCND3 and the K+ channel‑interacting protein 2 (KChIP2) β subunit, and determines the early repolarization of the action potential (AP). Two human mutations (G600R and L450F) in KV4.3 are associated with Brugada syndrome and they increase the KV4.3/KChIP2‑encoded fast transient outward K+ current (Ito,f) and cause...
