“…Ca v 1.2 is evolutionally conserved protein that is expressed in the heart, brain, lung and smooth muscles, and is critical for Ca 2+ signaling, cellular and neuronal excitability, muscle contraction, and regulation of gene expression [Dai et al, 2009; Hedley et al, 2009]. The variable clinical spectrum summarized in Table 1 [Splawski et al, 2005; Sepp et al, 2017; Corona-Rivera et al, 2015; Etheridge et al, 2011; Splawski et al, 2004; Gillis et al, 2012; Wemhöner et al, 2015; Boczek et al, 2015; Fukuyama et al, 2014; Liu et al, 2017; Antzelevitch et al, 2007] may be accounted for by the numerous isoforms generated by alternatively spliced exons, variable expression of different transcripts in tissue, and the variant’s location in the protein and structural domain of the Ca v 1.2 channel. For example, in some individuals it is predominantly confined to the heart as seen in Brugada syndrome, while in others there is a predominant neurologic phenotype as seen in Patient 1.…”
