Abstract excerpt
Heterozygous de novo mutations in the neuronal protein Munc18-1/STXBP1 cause syndromic neurological symptoms, including severe epilepsy, intellectual disability, developmental delay, ataxia and tremor, summarized as STXBP1 encephalopathies. Although haploinsufficiency is the prevailing disease mechanism, it remains unclear how the reduction in Munc18-1 levels causes synaptic dysfunction in disease as well as how...
