Defective X-gating caused by<i>de novo</i>gain-of-function mutations in<i>KCNK3</i>underlies a developmental disorder with sleep apnea
2021-08-09
Abstract excerpt
Sleep apnea is a common disorder that represents a global public health burden. KCNK3 encodes TASK-1, a K + channel implicated in the control of breathing, but its link with sleep apnea remains poorly understood. Here we describe a novel developmental disorder with sleep apnea caused by rare de novo gain-of-function mutations in KCNK3 . The mutations cluster around the ‘X-gate’, a gating motif which controls chann...
