Abstract excerpt
The transmembrane protein 43 (TMEM43/LUMA) p.S358L mutation causes arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy named as ARVC5, a fully penetrant disease with high risk of ventricular arrhythmias, sudden death, and heart failure. Male gender and vigorous exercise independently predicted deleterious outcome. Our systems genetics analysis revealed the importance of Tmem43 for cardiac and metabolic pathways associated with...
