Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
17136396 Myokymia is an autosomal dominant trait caused by mutations in KCNA1, encoding a voltage-gated potassium channel.
15486093 coupling between calcium influx and inactivation of voltage-gated A-type K+ channels occurs as a result of membrane depolarization and may contribute to afterhyperpolarization as negative feedback to control neuronal excitability
11960817 missense mutation involved in episodic ataxia type 1
11773313 Variable K(+) channel subunit dysfunction in inherited mutations of KCNA1
15351427 This study report an unusual family in which the same point mutation in the voltage-gated potassium channel gene KCNA1 resulted in markedly different clinical phenotypes.
15136567 Results describe an erbstatin (Erb) analogue as a small molecule inhibitor of the N-type inactivation in potassium channels Kv1.4 and Kv1.1+Kvbeta1.
15837928 Results identify palmitoylation as a mechanism for K(+) channel interactions with plasma membrane lipids contributing to electric field-induced conformational alterations.
12799903 I177N, mutation in S1 segment, alters the expression and gating properties of channel expressed in Xenopus oocytes.
