Abstract excerpt
Missense variants in the KCNQ2 gene can cause developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE). While most KCNQ2-DEE cases are attributed to loss-of-function (LOF) mutations, gain-of-function (GOF) mutations have also been implicated in the disorder. This study describes the clinical features of a DEE patient with a KCNQ2 mutation in the voltage-sensing domain (VSD) and analyzes the variant's electrophysiological...
