Rescue of two trafficking-defective variants of the neuronal glycine transporter GlyT2 associated to hyperekplexia
2021-03-25
Abstract excerpt
Hyperekplexia is a rare sensorimotor syndrome characterized by pathological startle reflex in response to unexpected trivial stimuli for which there is no specific treatment. Neonates suffer from hypertonia and are at high risk of sudden death due to apnea episodes. Mutations in the human SLC6A5 gene encoding the neuronal glycine transporter GlyT2 may disrupt the inhibitory glycinergic neurotransmission and cause...
