Missense and inframe del/dup associated with disease. The precise mechanisms for these variants have yet to be determined, however, ATP1A3 dominant negative variants are thought to be associated with disease. See pubmed references.Assoc with AD CAPOS syndrome (cerebellar ataxia, areflexia, pes cavus, optic atrophy and sensorineural hearing loss), AD dystonia-12 and AD alternating hemiplegia of childhood 2 (AHC2). All 3 conditions share some clinical features - part of phenotypic spectrum. AHC2 - rare syndrome of infantile onset of episodic hemi-or quadriplegia - seizures reported as a feature by Heinzen et al, 2012. Rosewich et al, 2012 and Yang et al 2014 - some patients develop epilepsy/seizures - not all. Several papers reported multiple variants and some functional work has been done. Sasaki et al, 2014 - het E185K and het D801N variant in 12 (36%) and 10(30%) of 33 Japanese patients with AHC2 (11 other missense variants were detected in the other individuals). all de novo. E815K seemed to have a more severe disese course - neonatal onset and seizures, and only 2/10 D801N patients had seizures. The other 11 variants appeared to be more phenotypically similar to D801N although epilepsy was seen in some.Created: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m.
