Christian Dina, Nabila Bouatia-Naji, Xavier Jeunemaitre and colleagues from the Leducq Transatlantic MITRAL Network report the results of a genome-wide association study of nonsyndromic mitral valve prolapse. They identify six susceptibility loci and provide functional evidence implicating LMCD1 and TNS1 as genes influencing mitral valve development.
