Response by Crotti et al to Letter Regarding Article, "Genetic Modifiers for the Long-QT Syndrome: How Important Is the Role of Variants in the 3' Untranslated Region of KCNQ1?"
We welcome the opportunity to respond to the expected comments by Amin et al regarding our article on the modifying role of 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in type 1 long-QT syndrome patients.1
In the original cohort studied by Amin et al,2 the analysis of 3 small families supported the modifying role of 3′UTR SNPs. Amin et al now propose, as a possible reason for the different results, the predominance of haploinsufficient type 1 long-QT syndrome–causative mutations in our population. However, in our 3 founder families, 2 ( KCNQ1 A341V and also KCNQ1 IVS7-2A>G) of the 3 mutations have a dominant-negative effect,3,4 and only 1 ( KCNQ1 -G589D) reduces the ability of the mutated proteins to form functional tetramers leading to haploinsufficiency.5 This is exactly the same pattern of their 3 families: 2 have a dominant-negative effect …
期刊介绍:
Circulation: Genomic and Precision Medicine considers all types of original research articles, including studies conducted in human subjects, laboratory animals, in vitro, and in silico. Articles may include investigations of: clinical genetics as applied to the diagnosis and management of monogenic or oligogenic cardiovascular disorders; the molecular basis of complex cardiovascular disorders, including genome-wide association studies, exome and genome sequencing-based association studies, coding variant association studies, genetic linkage studies, epigenomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics, and metagenomics; integration of electronic health record data or patient-generated data with any of the aforementioned approaches, including phenome-wide association studies, or with environmental or lifestyle factors; pharmacogenomics; regulation of gene expression; gene therapy and therapeutic genomic editing; systems biology approaches to the diagnosis and management of cardiovascular disorders; novel methods to perform any of the aforementioned studies; and novel applications of precision medicine. Above all, we seek studies with relevance to human cardiovascular biology and disease. Manuscripts are examined by the editorial staff and usually evaluated by expert reviewers assigned by the editors. Both clinical and basic articles will also be subject to statistical review, when appropriate. Provisional or final acceptance is based on originality, scientific content, and topical balance of the journal. Decisions are communicated by email, generally within six weeks. The editors will not discuss a decision about a manuscript over the phone. All rebuttals must be submitted in writing to the editorial office.
