Characterisation of the mechanism by which a nonsense variant in <i>RYR2</i> results in ventricular arrhythmia
2021-03-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Heterozygous variants in the cardiac ryanodine receptor gene ( RYR2 ) cause catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Most pathogenic RYR2 variants are missense variants which result in a gain of function, causing ryanodine receptors to be increasingly sensitive to activation by calcium, have an increased open probability and an increased propensity to develop calcium waves....
