Abstract excerpt
Mutations in SCN4A gene encoding the skeletal muscle-type voltage-gated sodium channel Nav1.4 are known to cause neuromuscular disorders. Here, we report a previously undescribed variant affecting the DIII-IV cytoplasmic linker, which is a critically important region participating in channel inactivation. The variant p.L1326P was found in heterozygous state in two members of the same family presenting mild...
