Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line from a patient with conduction disease and recurrent ventricular fibrillation with a sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5 (SCN5A) gene c.392 + 3A > G splice-site variant.

Abstract excerpt

Variants in the sodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 5 gene (SCN5A) produce variable cardiac phenotypes including Brugada syndrome, conduction disease and cardiomyopathy. These phenotypes can lead to life-threatening arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death. Novel variants in splice-site regions of SCN5A require functional studies to characterise their pathogenicity as they are poorly...
