Abstract excerpt
Episodic ataxia type-1 is a rare human neurological syndrome which occurs during childhood and persists through the whole life of affected patients. Several heterozygous point mutations have been found in the coding sequence of the voltage-gated potassium channel gene hKv1.1 of different affected families. V408A and E325D mutations are located in the cytoplasmic putative pore region of hKv1.1 channels and...
