Comment:

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent type of cardiac arrhythmia and is commonly associated with other cardiovascular disorders, but in up to 30% of cases there is no evidence of overt heart disease. This condition is called lone or idiopathic AF. About 15% of lone AF presents as familial disorder (PMID:24333117, 23551519). Mutations in the GJA5 gene are associated with early-onset atrial fibrillation (PMID:23040431, 20818502). ATFB11 is a sub-type of familial atrial fibrillation. For symptom annotation please refer to familial atrial fibrillation.

Additional Information:

Molecular genetics OMIM Gollob et al. (2006) presented evidence that tissue-specific mutations in the GJA5 gene may predispose the atria to fibrillation. They sequenced the GJA5 gene from genomic DNA isolated from resected cardiac tissue and peripheral lymphocytes from 15 patients ...
