Recurrent <i>de novo</i> single point mutation on the gene encoding Na <sup>+</sup> /K <sup>+</sup> pump results in epilepsy
2021-08-28
Abstract excerpt
The etiology of epilepsy remains undefined in two-thirds of patients. Here, we identified a de novo mutation of ATP1A2 (c.2426 T>G, p.Leu809Arg), which encodes the α2 subunit of Na + /K + -ATPase, from a family with idiopathic epilepsy. This mutation caused seizures in the study patients. We generated the point mutation mouse model Atp1a2 L809R , which recapitulated the epilepsy observed in the study patient...
