Genotype–Phenotype Correlation in a Family with Brugada Syndrome Harboring the Novel p.Gln371* Nonsense Variant in the <em>SCN5A</em> Gene

Genotype–Phenotype Correlation in a Family with Brugada Syndrome Harboring the Novel p.Gln371* Nonsense Variant in the <em>SCN5A</em> Gene

Brugada syndrome (BrS) is marked by coved ST-segment elevation and increased risk of sudden cardiac death. The genetics of this syndrome are elusive in over half of the cases. Variants in the <i>SCN5A</i> gene are the single most common known genetic unifier, accounting for about a third...
