Mutated KCNH2 inhibits IKr. 3 / 3
| 3

reach
"Mutations of HERG cause the autosomal dominant long-QT syndrome (LQTS), presumably by disrupting the normal function of IKr."

reach
"Functional expression studies have demonstrated that KCNH2 mutations cause a reduction of IKr current, but, similarly to LQT1 mutations, this effect is realized through different biophysical mechanisms and also though trafficking abnormalities of the mutant proteins [XREF_BIBR]."

reach
"Mutation of HERG causes a decrease and a loss of function of IKr resulting in long QT syndrome 2 (LQT2)."
