Cardiac Subtype-Specific Modeling of K(v)1.5 Ion Channel Deficiency Using Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

The ultrarapid delayed rectifier K(+) current (I(Kur)), mediated by K(v)1.5 channels, constitutes a key component of the atrial action potential. Functional mutations in the underlying KCNA5 gene have been shown to cause hereditary forms of atrial fibrillation (AF). Here, we combine targeted genetic...
