cardiovascular system
• E18.5 heart shows increased pulmonary artery diameter, but no abnormality in aortic diameter
• right ventricular dysmorphism with a shift to the base, rounded apex, and misalignment relative to the left ventricle
• highly dysmorphic appearance of atrioventricular node region in heterozygotes
• 12% show atrial septal defects, which are not found in control or I183M mutant heterozygotes
• in 88% of heterozgyous adults
• at 15 weeks of age the right ventricle displays a shift to the base with a rounded apex relative to controls
• significant decrease in right ventricle ejection fraction
• under homeostatic nonanesthetized conditions there is increased PQ and QRS and a small tendency for decreased ST intervals, and 3 of 8 heterozygotes showed possible split QRS waves
• small tendency for decreased ST interval
• neonatal cardiomyocytes show a decrease in basal and maximal respiration compared with control cardiomyocytes

muscle
• highly dysmorphic appearance of atrioventricular node region in heterozygotes
• significant decrease in right ventricle ejection fraction
