Abstract excerpt
Episodic ataxia type 1 (EA-1) is an autosomal dominant neurological disorder caused by mutations in the potassium channel Kv1.1. Two EA-1 mutations, I262T and S342I, have been identified with unique clinical phenotypes, but their functional and biochemical properties have not been fully investigated. Here we characterized these two mutations in transfected mammalian cells both electrophysiologically and...
