A mutation in the atrial-specific myosin light chain gene (MYL4) causes familial atrial fibrillation
Here, Michael Gollob and colleagues perform a whole exome sequencing study to identify a mutation in the atrial-specific myosin light chain gene MYL4 in a small family with autosomal dominant familial atrial fibrillation. They also test the functionality of this MYL4mutation in zebrafish cardiac fun...
