Homozygous missense N629D hERG (KCNH2) potassium channel mutation causes developmental defects in the right ventricle and its outflow tract and embryonic lethality.

abstract：:Large-conductance Ca2+-dependent K+ channels (KCa), which are abundant on the sarcolemma of vascular myocytes, provide negative feedback via membrane hyperpolarization that limits Ca2+ entry through L-type Ca2+ channels (ICaL). We hypothesize that local accumulation of subsarcolemmal Ca2+ during ICaL openings amplifie...
