The Drosophila erg K+ channel polypeptide is encoded by the seizure locus.

The Journal of neuroscience : the official journal of the Society for Neuroscience - 1 Feb 1997

Titus S A, Warmke J W, Ganetzky B

Abstract excerpt

The eag family of K+ channels contains three known subtypes: eag, elk, and erg. Genes representing the first two subtypes have been identified in flies and mammals, whereas the third subtype has been defined only by the human HERG gene, which encodes an inwardly rectifying channel that is mutated...
