Gating defects of disease-causing de novo mutations in Cav1.3 Ca2+ channels
1 Jan 2018
Abstract excerpt
Recently, we and others identified somatic and germline de novo gain-of-function mutations in CACNA1D, the gene encoding the α1-subunit of voltage-gated Cav1.3 Ca2+-channels. While somatic mutations identified in aldosterone producing adenomas (APAs) underlie treatment-resistant hypertension, germline CACNA1D mutations are associated with a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by a wide symptomatic spectrum,...
