Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background. The slow delayed rectifier potassium current (I <sub>Ks</sub> ), formed by the assembly of the Kv7.1 ( <italic>KCNQ1</italic> ) and MinK ( <italic>KCNE1</italic> ) subunits, is essential for cardiac repolarization. Variants of either protein may disrupt this current and contribute to different types of Long QT Syndrome (LQTS), conditions that might lead to arrhythmi...
