Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABAA) receptor γ2 subunit gene, GABRG2, have been associated with a variety of epilepsy syndromes. A de novo mutation (c.T1027C, p.F343L) in GABRG2 was identified in a patient with early onset epileptic encephalopathy. Zebrafish overexpressing mutant human GABRG2 (F343L) subunits displayed spontaneous seizure activity and convulsive behaviors. In this study, we...
