May support individualized management in Andersen-Tawil syndrome; leaves open prospective validation of the proposed classification.
This review provides a mechanistic understanding of Andersen-Tawil syndrome and proposes a new structural and functional classification of KCNJ2 loss-of-function mutations to guide personalized treatment.
Moreno-Manuel et al. (2022) conducted a review in Andersen-Tawil syndrome. A review of Andersen-Tawil syndrome proposes a new classification of KCNJ2 loss-of-function mutations based on their position in the Kir2.1 channel structure to guide personalized treatment strategies.
