Abstract excerpt
The SCN5A gene, located on chromosome 3p21, has 28 exons and is a member of the human voltage-gated sodium channel gene family. Genetic variation in SCN5A is associated with a diverse range of phenotypes. Due to incomplete penetrance, delayed expression, inherent low signal-to-noise ratio, and marked phenotypic heterogeneity, rare novel variants in SCN5A could be misinterpreted. Hence, defining the phenotypic...
