In a 32-year-old woman with marked QT prolongation (QTc=0.61 s) and repeated episodes of syncope, we identified a single pertinent base substitution (G to A at 1909) in HERG by genetic analysis. This novel missense mutation is predicted to cause an amino acid substitution of lysine for glutamic acid at position 637 (E637K) in the pore-S6 loop. Therefore, we investigated the role of a glutamic acid at the vicinity of the pore in HERG channels by mutating it to a lysine.
