Mutations in the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) result in long QT syndrome type 2 (LQT2). The hERG gene encodes a K+ channel that contributes to the repolarization of the cardiac action potential.

Antipsychotics, HERG and sudden death [PDF]
The recent case—control study by Reilly et al ([2002][1]) showing an association between probable sudden unexplained death and current treatment with thioridazine in psychiatric in-patients underscores two fundamental issues essential for dealing with potential risks of this kind in the context ...

Gain of function mutants: Ion channels and G protein-coupled receptors [PDF]
Many ion channels and receptors display striking phenotypes for gain-of-function mutations but milder phenotypes for null mutations. Gain of molecular function can have several mechanistic bases: selectivity changes, gating changes including constitutive

Hierarchical Cont-Bouchaud model [PDF]
We extend the well-known Cont-Bouchaud model to include a hierarchical topology of agent's interactions. The influence of hierarchy on system dynamics is investigated by two models. The first one is based on a multi-level, nested Erdos-Renyi random graph

Background Human ether-à-go-go-related gene potassium channel 1 (hERG) is a voltage-gated potassium channel, the voltage-sensing domain (VSD) of which is targeted by a gating-modifier toxin, APETx1.

Molecular medicine of microRNAs: structure, function and implications for diabetes [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a family of endogenous small noncoding RNA molecules, of 19–28 nucleotides in length. In humans, up to 3% of all genes are estimated to encode these evolutionarily conserved sequences.

Facilitation of I Kr current by some hERG channel blockers suppresses early afterdepolarizations. [PDF]
Drug-induced block of the cardiac rapid delayed rectifying potassium current (I Kr), carried by the human ether-a-go-go-related gene (hERG) channel, is the most common cause of acquired long QT syndrome.

Kv4.3 Modulates the Distribution of hERG [PDF]
AbstractThis study examines the interaction between hERG and Kv4.3. The functional interaction between hERG and Kv4.3, expressed in a heterologous cell line, was studied using patch clamp techniques, western blot, immunofluorescence, and co-immunoprecipitation.
