Molecular genetics of arrhythmogenic right ventricular and dilated cardiomyopathy in South Africans
Introduction: Little is known about the molecular genetics of cardiomyopathy in Africans. Aims: to (I) determine the prevalence of desmosomal gene mutations in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in desmosomal protein genes (i.e., plakophilin 2, de...
