Background: The potassium voltage gated channel, subfamily H (eag related), member 2 (KCNH2) gene encodes a voltage-gated potassium channel which has an important role in cardiac action potential repolarization in the mammalian heart. Mutations in KCNH2 have been shown to cause chromosome 7-linked congenital long QT syndrome, a disorder associated with delayed cardiac repolarization, prolonged electrocardiographic QT intervals, and the development of ventricular arrhythmias. KCNH2 channels are an important target for many drugs, and have emerged as a significant type of cardiac ion channel.Highly expressed in heart and brain.
