Genetic variations in five genes involved in the excitement of cardiomyocytes

ABSTRACT We provide here 29 genetic variations, including 28 novel ones, in five genes that are potentially involved in the excitement of cardiomyocytes: we found 4 in _KCNA10_, 2 in

_KCNK1_, 8 in _KCNK6_, 11 in _SLC18A1_ (VMAT1), and 4 in _SLC6A2_ (norepinephrine transporter). We also examined their allelic frequencies in a Japanese population of long QT

syndrome-affected and nonaffected individuals. These data would be useful for genetic association studies designed to investigate acquired arrhythmias. SIMILAR CONTENT BEING VIEWED BY OTHERS
