An Isolated Cardiac Conduction Disease Maps to Chromosome 19q

Abstract excerpt

Isolated cardiac conduction disease is an autosomal dominant defect that includes various combinations of bundle branch or fascicular blocks. These defects can cause sudden death due to a complete heart block. We used a genome-wide screening approach with polymorphic (CA)n repeat markers to determine the chromosomal position of the gene defect implicated in this disorder. The analyses were carried out on a large...
