Understanding paralogous epilepsy–associated GABA A receptor variants: Clinical implications, mechanisms, and potential pitfalls
6 Dec 2024
Abstract excerpt
Recent discoveries have revealed that genetic variants in γ-aminobutyric acid type A (GABA A ) receptor subunits can lead to both gain-of-function (GOF) and loss-of-function (LOF) receptors. GABA A receptors, however, have a pseudosymmetrical pentameric assembly, and curiously diverse functional outcomes have been reported for certain homologous variants in paralogous genes (paralogous variants). To investigate...
