Erbb2 is required for cardiac atrial electrical activity during development.
PLoS ONE, 2014 The heart is the first organ required to function during embryonic development and is absolutely necessary for embryo survival. Cardiac activity is dependent on both the sinoatrial node (SAN), which is the pacemaker of heart's electrical activity, and ...
