Editorial with a brief description of the genetic background and channelopathies, which may lead to a short QT interval.
The authors found it noteworthy that substitution of aspartic acid (negative) for asparagine (neutral) in the same position of HERG (N588D) has been linked to the LQT2 syndrome secondary to a loss of function of IKr . This substitution leads to replacement of a neutral amino acid with a negatively charged one, whereas the N588K mutation responsible for some cases of short QT syndrome, secondary to gain of function of IKr , replaces a neutral amino acid(asparagine) with a positively charged one (lysine).
