The panel reviewing SLC4A3 was divided whether to classify it as having strong or moderate evidence.

This gene causes primary systemic carnitine deficiency which may mimic SQTS. Abbreviations: VT=ventricular tachycardia, AR=autosomal recessive, AD=autosomal dominant, aLQTS=acquired long QT syndrome. Timothy Syndrome and Anderson-Tawil Syndrome are characterized by long QT syndrome in conjunction with characteristic non-cardiac phenotypes. CALM1, CALM2, and CALM3 are 3 distinct genes that all encode an identical calmodulin protein.
