rs36210423 is a variant in the SCN5A gene on chromosome 3. The major allele (on the minus strand) is C; all three possible minor alleles (A,G,T) have apparently been reported as occurring, according to dbSNP. The three minor alleles and their more common protein designations are: * c.1715C>A, Ala572Asp or A527D * c.1715C>T, Ala572Val or A572D * c.1715C>G, Ala572Gly or A572G Most reports of pathogenicity (or the lack of it) focus on A572D, which was initially reported as a pathogenic (and dominant) mutation potentially leading to a mild form of long QT syndrome.. Subsequent analyses by several groups have tended to conclude that all rs36210423 variants are likely to be benign.
