Abstract excerpt
Long QT syndrome (LQT) is an inherited primary arrhythmic disorder characterized by prolonged QT interval on the surface electrocardiogram and life-threatening arrhythmia. In this study, a skin biopsy was obtained from an LQT type 2 (LQT2) patient, who carried a nonsense mutation (c.1956C > A; p.Y652X) in the potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 2 (KCNH2) gene. The skin fibroblasts were reprogrammed...
