    1. The proband (Figure 1, III:1) of African descent, harboring the SCN5A-N470K mutation, presented with symptomatic paroxysmal AF at 17 years of age

      Case#: 17-year-old African American male

      DiseaseAssertion: Symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF)

      FamilyInfo: Proband's mother experienced symptomatic early-onset paroxysmal AF at 47 years of age. Proband's maternal grandmother presented with minimally symptomatic AF at 52 years of age.

      ParentalTesting: Proband, mother, and maternal grandmother tested positive for SCN5A variant.

      CasePresentingHPOs: HP:0005110, HP:0004757

      CaseHPOFreeText: Symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. The initial presenting ECG revealed AF with controlled ventricular rates in the absence of atrioventricular (AV) nodal blockers.

      CaseNotHPOs: HP:0001678

      CaseNotHPOFreeText: absence of atrioventricular (AV) nodal blockers, LA and LV size normal.

      CasePreviousTesting: NR

      FunctionalAnalysis: The biophysical properties of the SCN5A-N470K mutant channel were investigated using voltage-clamp recordings following the transient transfection of HEK cells with either wild-type (WT) or N470K channels. The impact of the N470K mutation on the gating properties of the Nav1.5 sodium channel was also investigated. Findings indicate that a gain-of-function mutation.
