Generalized epilepsy-paroxysmal dyskinesia syndrome

Orpha code: 79137OMIM code: 609446

Definicja

Generalized epilepsy-paroxysmal dyskinesia syndrome is characterised by the association of paroxysmal dyskinesia and generalised epilepsy (usually absence or generalised tonic-clonic seizures) in the same individual or family. The prevalence is unknown. Analysis in one of the reported families led to the identification of a causative mutation in the <i>KCNMA1</i> gene (chromosome 10q22), encoding the alpha subunit of the BK channel. Transmission is autosomal dominant.
