Abstract excerpt
Patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS; MIM 1921500) frequently suffer from syncope and are threatened by sudden cardiac death due to ventricular arrhythmias, typically of the torsade de pointes type. Initial progress in revealing the molecular basis of the disease was made by the observation of genetic linkage of the disease locus to the Harvey Ras-1 gene (HRAS 1) on chromosome 11p15.5. More recently loci on...
