Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The Worm Study, ascertained from a multigeneration pedigree segregating a single amino acid deletion in SCN5A (c.4850_4852delTCT, p.(Phe1617del), rs749697698), is characterized by substantial phenotypic heterogeneity and overlap of sudden cardiac death, long-QT syndrome, cardiac conduction disease, Brugada syndrome, and isorhythmic atrioventricular dissociation. Linkage analysis for a synthetic trait...
