Abstract excerpt

Clustered attacks of epileptic episodes originating from the frontal lobe during sleep are the main symptoms of autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (ADNFLE, MIM 600513). Despite the clinical homogeneity, three forms of ADNFLE have been associated with chromosomes 20 (ENFL1; ref. 1), 15 (ENFL2; ref. 2) and 1 (ENFL3; ref. 3). Mutations of the gene encoding the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine...
