Disruption of a Conservative Motif in the C-Terminal Loop of the KCNQ1 Channel Causes LQT Syndrome

Abstract excerpt
We identified a single nucleotide variation (SNV) (c.1264A>G) in the KCNQ1 gene in a 5-year-old boy who presented with a prolonged QT interval. His elder brother and mother, but not sister and father, also had this mutation. This missense mutation leads to a p.Lys422Glu (K422E) substitution in the Kv7.1 protein, never mentioned before. We inserted this substitution in an expression plasmid containing Kv7.1...
