Comparisons of dual isogenic human iPSC pairs identify functional alterations directly caused by an epilepsy associated <i>SCN1A</i> mutation
2019-01-18
Abstract excerpt
Over 1250 mutations in SCN1A , the Nav1.1 voltage-gated sodium channel gene, are associated with seizure disorders including GEFS+. To evaluate how a specific mutation, independent of genetic background, causes seizure activity we generated two pairs of isogenic human iPSC lines by CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing. One pair is a control line from an unaffected sibling, and the mutated control carrying the GEFS+ K1270T S...
