last update : 02-07-2010
Symbol LQT11
Location 7q21.2
Name long QT syndrome with ventricular tachyarrhythmia, type 11
Corresponding gene AKAP9
Main clinical features predisposing to torsades de pointes and ventricular fibrillation
Genetic determination not applicable
Function/system disorder cardiovascular
Type disease
Mechanism(s)
Gene mutationChromosome rearrangementEffectComments
missense   abnormal protein/loss of function (S1570L) disrupting binding with KCNQ1, reducing PKA phosphorylation of KCNQ1, eliminating the response of KCNQ1 to cAMP, and prolonging the action potential in computational models of the ventricular myocyte
