Modulating Endoplasmic Reticulum Chaperones and Mutant Protein Degradation in GABRG2(Q390X) Associated with Genetic Epilepsy with Febrile Seizures Plus and Dravet Syndrome.

Abstract excerpt

A significant number of patients with genetic epilepsy do not obtain seizure freedom, despite developments in new antiseizure drugs, suggesting a need for novel therapeutic approaches. Many genetic epilepsies are associated with misfolded mutant proteins, including GABRG2(Q390X)-associated Dravet syndrome, which we have previously shown to result in intracellular accumulation of mutant GABAA receptor γ2(Q390X)...
