Hundreds of KCNJ2 (Kir2.1) variants of uncertain significance (VUS) have been associated with Andersen-Tawil Syndrome (ATS). Remarkably, most Kir2.1 variants' surface expression and function have been described via deep mutational scans (DMS). These results have provided an unprecedented picture of Kir2.1 structure-function relationships and insights into VUS. However, these studies are limited by the lack of...
