The gene for arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy maps to chromosome 14q23–q24
1 Jan 1994
Abstract excerpt
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy/dysplasia (ARVD) is a dominantly inherited disorder progressively affecting the myocardium and it is one of the major causes of juvenile sudden death. The chromosomal localization of the disease gene is reported here for the first time. A maximum lod score of 6.04 was obtained at theta = 0 for linkage with the polymorphic marker D14S42 (14q23-q24) in two families,...
