The genetic and molecular basis of epilepsy.

Abstract excerpt

In the past decade, studies of large families in which epilepsy has been inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion have revealed several mutated genes, most of which encode ion channel subunits. Despite these exciting findings, only a few families with similar phenotypes have mutations in these known genes. More frustrating has been the genetic research into idiopathic epilepsies with complex inheritance....
