“…The molecular mechanisms underlying EA1 have been established by determining the functional properties of wild-type (WT) and several mutant channels in Xenopus oocytes or mammalian cell lines (Adelman et al, 1995;D'Adamo et al, 1998;Zerr et al, 1998;D'Adamo et al, 1999;Zuberi et al, 1999;Eunson et al, 2000;Manganas et al, 2001;Cusimano et al, 2004;Imbrici et al, 2003Imbrici et al, , 2007Imbrici et al, , 2008Imbrici et al, , 2006Imbrici et al, , 2007Imbrici et al, , 2008Imbrici et al, , 2009 (Petersson et al, 2003); S309T is a missense mutation identified in autosomal-dominant myokymia and seizures rats: rKv1.1 S309T/+ (Ishida et al, 2012); V408A is a mutation identified in individuals with EA1 that was inserted into the murine Kcna1 to generate a knockin animal model of the disease: mKv1.1 V408A/+ (Herson et al, 2003).…”
