Abstract
Derangements in voltage-gated potassium channel function are responsible for a range of paroxysmal neurologic disorders. Pathogenic variants in the KCNA1 gene, which encodes the voltage-gated potassium channel Kv1.1, are responsible for Episodic Ataxia Type 1 (EA1). Patients with EA1 have an increased incidence of epilepsy, but KCNA1 variants have not been described in epileptic encephalopathyI documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
