Abstract
The S672R mutation in heart cell ion channels leads to low heart rates and arrhythmia by an unknown route. A multifaceted NMR analysis now demonstrates that this mutant impacts allosteric coupling in domains inside of the cell to change channel activation, providing a mechanistic explanation for phenotypic outcomes.Entities:
