Brugada syndrome v1.4 RRAD Zornitza Stark Marked gene: RRAD as ready
Brugada syndrome v1.4 RRAD Zornitza Stark Gene: rrad has been classified as Red List (Low Evidence).
Brugada syndrome v1.4 RRAD Zornitza Stark gene: RRAD was added
gene: RRAD was added to Brugada syndrome. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: RRAD was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: RRAD were set to 34185406; 31114854
Phenotypes for gene: RRAD were set to Brugada syndrome, MONDO:0015263, RRAD-related
Review for gene: RRAD was set to RED
Added comment: RRAD encodes the RAD GTPase, a member of the RGK subfamily involved in regulation of cardiac ion channels and cytoskeletal dynamics.

PMID 31114854 reports five affected members of a three‑generation French family carrying a rare missense variant p.R211H in RRAD, present in 3 hets in gnomAD v4. iPSC‑derived cardiomyocytes from two affected relatives, as well as a CRISPR‑edited isogenic line, showed reduced Na⁺ peak current, increased persistent Na⁺ current, prolonged action potentials and cytoskeletal disorganisation, supporting a gain‑of‑function effect of the mutant GTPase. Screening of 186 unrelated BrS patients identified three additional rare RRAD missense variants without functional validation and with much higher gnomAD counts.
