Effect type:
Expressivity(1)  
Modifier effect:
Altered density of expressed heterozygous KCNH2 channels(1)  
Detail:
  • Target disease:
    Long QT Syndrome (DOID_2843)
    Effect type:
    Expressivity 
    Modifier effect:
    Altered density of expressed heterozygous KCNH2 channels 
    Evidence:
    Assessment of genotype–phenotype associations and gene activity study 
    Effect:
    The S706C (KCNH2) mutation was found to reduce the current density of expressed heterozygous KCNH2 channels with a positive shift (+8 mV) of the activation curve.
    Reference:
    Title:
    Additional gene variants reduce effectiveness of beta-blockers in the LQT1 form of long QT syndrome.
    Species studied:
    Human
    Abstract:
    Beta-blockers are widely used to prevent the lethal cardiac events associated with the long QT syndrome (LQTS), especially in KCNQ1-related LQTS (LQT1) patients. Some LQT1 patients, however, are refractory to this therapy.
