" /> Cardiac arrhythmia, ankyrin-b-related - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Cardiac arrhythmia, ankyrin-b-related;

CISMeF acronym : LQT4;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Ankyrin-b syndrome;

Included titles and symbols : Long qt syndrome 4; LQT4;

Description : Loss-of-function mutations in ANK2 can result in a broad spectrum of clinical cardiac phenotypes. Carriers of some mutations (e.g., E1425G, 106410.0001) display QT interval prolongation, stress- and/or exercise-induced polymorphic ventricular arrhythmia, syncope, and sudden cardiac death. Patients with other variants show clinical phenotypes, sometimes mild, extending beyond LQTS, leading to the label 'ankyrin-B syndrome.' These phenotypes include bradycardia, sinus arrhythmia, delayed conduction/conduction block, idiopathic ventricular fibrillation, and catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (Mohler et al., 2007).;

Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the ankyrin 2 gene (ANK2, 106410.0001);

Prefixed ID : #600919;
