Abstract excerpt
KEY POINTS: The recurrent SCN2A mutation R853Q is associated with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with typical onset after the first months of life. Heterologously expressed R853Q channels exhibit an overall loss-of-function as a result of multiple defects in time- and voltage-dependent channel properties. A previously unrecognized enhancement of slow inactivation is conferred by the R853Q mutation and...
