We identified various genes associated with congenital heart defects (DUSP22 and MYOM2) and another gene (UTS2) which is known to protein expression changes affecting cardiovascular function in patients with congenital heart defects (Simpson et al., 2006; Grunert et al., 2014; Thorsson et al., 2015; Auxerre-Planti é et al., 2020). The gene discussed is UTS2; the disease is congenital heart disease.
