A comprehensive in silico analysis, distribution and frequency of human Nkx2-5 mutations; A critical gene in congenital heart disease
Introduction: Congenital heart disease (CHD) affects 1% to 2 % of live births. The Nkx2-5 gene, is known as the significant heart marker during embryonic evolution and it is also necessary for the survival of cardiomyocytes and homeostasis in adulthood.
