R104W is present in 1 alleles in gnomAD. This residue resides in a Hotspot region for Brugada syndrome and a Mild_Hotspot region for LQT3.

Variant features alone are equivalent to phenotyping 4 individuals for Brugada syndrome and 1 individuals for LQT3.

In silico predictors

Variant-level computational predictors.
PROVEAN PolyPhen-2 BLAST-PSSM REVEL Penetrance Density BrS (%) Penetrance Density LQT3 (%)
-7.59 1 -0.38 0.95 51 31

PROVEAN scores below -2 suggest deleterious impact. REVEL scores above 0.5–0.75 are often interpreted as likely pathogenic. PolyPhen-2 scores above 0.85 are typically pathogenic. Penetrance density summarises neighbouring residue risk (Kroncke et al. 2019).

Totals may differ from individual publications due to duplicate patients removed during curation.

Functional data

Peak and late/persistent current values are relative to wild-type (100% indicates no change). V1/2 activation and inactivation denote the membrane potentials (mV) at which half-maximal current is achieved.
