Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Long QT syndrome (LQT) is an inherited cardiac disorder that results in syncope, seizures, and sudden death. In a family with LQT, we identified a novel mutation in human ether-a-go-go-related gene (HERG), a voltage-gated potassium channel. METHODS AND RESULTS: We used DNA sequence an...
