Background - Many long-QT syndrome (LQTS) mutations in the cardiac Na+ channel result in a gain of function due to a fraction of channels that fail to inactivate ( burst), leading to sustained current (I-sus) during depolarization. However, some Na+ channel mutations that are causally linked to cardiac arrhythmia do not result in an obvious gain of function as measured using standard patch-clamp techniques. An example presented here, the SCN5A LQTS mutant I1768V, does not act to increase I-sus (
