Abstract excerpt
The CACNA1G gene encodes the low-voltage-activated Cav3.1 channel, which is expressed in various areas of the CNS, including the cerebellum. We studied two missense CACNA1G variants, p.L208P and p.L909F, and evaluated the relationships between the severity of Cav3.1 dysfunction and the clinical phenotype. The presentation was of a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy without evident cerebellar atrophy. Both...
