In this study, we have identified a novel mutation in RyR2 that is associated with sudden cardiac death. By characterizing the function defects of mutant RyR2 in animal, whole heat, and cardiomyocytes, we demonstrated the pathogenic basis of the disease-causing mutation and provided a deeper mechanistic understanding of a life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia.
