possible dominant functional effect, not simply loss of function. AD neurodevelopmental disorder with or without seizures and gait abnormalities. Global dev delay apparent from infancy/early childhood. Some patients may develop seizures of variabled severity ealy in life. Martin et al, 2017 - 5 unrelated patients aged 4-21. 1 patient had developed intractable seizures at 5 weeks of age. 3 of the other 4 had seizures of varying severity. 5 diff de novo het missense variants detected. 4/5 in a highly conserved motif. No functional studies undertaken but molecular modelling suggest these mutations would disturbthe gating mech. The 5th variant was in the mildest aff patient and thought to interefer with binding between monomers.Created: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m.
