Abstract excerpt
Within the tetramerization domain (T1) of most voltage-gated potassium channels (Kv) are highly conserved charged residues that line the T1-T1 interface. We investigated the Kv1.1 residue R86 located at the narrowest region of the T1 interface. A Kv1.1 R86Q mutation was reported in a child diagnosed with lower limb dyskinesia (Set KK, Ghosh D, Huq AHM, Luat AF. Mov Disord Clin Pract 4: 784-786, 2017). The child...
