A Comparison of Epilepsy-Inducing Mutations Across SCN1A, SCN2A, AND SCN8A
SCN1A, SCN2A, and SCN8A are three sodium ion channels found in nerve cells. These channels allow the passage of sodium ions into the cell for proper functioning of actions potentials. This paper considers mutations within these channels that result in epilepsy as well as ataxia, dystonia, and othe...
