Abstract excerpt
High-throughput sequencing has identified numerous intronic variants in the SCN1A gene in epilepsy patients. Abnormal mRNA splicing caused by these variants can lead to significant phenotypic differences, but the mechanisms of epileptogenicity and phenotypic differences remain unknown. Two variants, c.4853-1 G>C and c.4853-25 T>A, were identified in intron 25 of SCN1A, which were associated with severe Dravet...
