Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To examine rare KCNJ18 variations recently reported to cause sporadic and thyrotoxic hypokalaemic periodic paralysis (TPP). METHODS: We sequenced KCNJ18 in 474 controls (400 Caucasians, 74 male Asians) and 263 unrelated patients with periodic paralysis (PP), including 30 patients with TPP without mutations in established PP genes. RESULTS: In 10 patients without TPP, we identified 9 heterozygous, novel...
