==Pathophysiology==
== Overview ==
Andersen-Tawil syndrome affects the [[heart]], symptoms are a disruption in the rhythm of the heart's lower chambers (ventricular arrhythmia) in addition to the symptoms of long QT syndrome. There are also physical abnormalities associated with Andersen-Tawil syndrome, these typically affect the head, face, and limbs. These features often include an unusually small lower jaw ([[micrognathia]]), low-set ears, and an abnormal curvature of the fingers called [[clinodactyly]].
It is understood that [[Andersen-Tawil syndrome]] is the result of [[mutation]] in ''[[KCNJ2]]'' [[gene]] which encodes for [[Kir2.1]] inward rectifier [[potassium]] channel that involves in [[cardiac]] [[repolarization]] phase. The movement of [[potassium]] [[Ion|ions]] through these [[Ion channel|channels]] is critical for maintaining the normal functions of [[skeletal muscles]] which are used for movement and [[cardiac muscle]]. [[Andersen-Tawil syndrome]] is a rare syndrome transmitted in [[autosomal dominant]] pattern.


===Genetics===
== Pathophysiology ==
The protein made by the ''KCNJ2'' gene forms a [[potassium channel|channel]] that transports potassium ions into [[muscle]] [[cell (biology)|cell]]s. The movement of potassium ions through these channels is critical for maintaining the normal functions of skeletal muscles which are used for movement and cardiac muscle. [[Mutation]]s in the ''KCNJ2'' gene alter the usual structure and function of potassium channels or prevent the channels from being inserted correctly into the cell membrane. Many mutations prevent a molecule called PIP2 from binding to the channels and effectively regulating their activity. These changes disrupt the flow of potassium ions in skeletal and cardiac muscle, leading to the periodic paralysis and irregular heart rhythm characteristic of Andersen-Tawil syndrome.


Researchers have not yet determined the role of the KCNJ2 gene in bone development, and it is not known how mutations in the gene lead to the developmental abnormalities often found in Andersen-Tawil syndrome.
