Abstract excerpt

Desmoglein-2 (DSG2), a member of the desmosomal cadherin superfamily, has been linked to arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC)which may cause life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. Fatal arrhythmias resulting in sudden death also occur in the absence of morphologic cardiac abnormalities at autopsy. We sequenced all 15 exons of DSG2 in DNA extracted from post-mortem heart...
