Susceptibility
  • to autoimmune scleroderma (antibodies in patients)
  • to autoimmune form of rippling muscle disease with myasthenia gravis (ARMD)
  • to atrial fibrillation (AF)
  • Variant & Polymorphism other
  • specific reaction of ARMD patient sera with the titin domain portion of the fusion protein GST-RMMG6
  • Candidate gene
  • strong biological candidate gene at the 2q31 locus for atrial fibrillation because of its role in maintaining the structural integrity of the sarcomere and its involvement in muscle elasticity and force transmission
  • Marker
    Therapy target
