GEFSP2
Chr 2ADsodium voltage-gated channel alpha subunit 1
Also known as: DEE6, DEE6A, DEE6B, DRVT, EIEE6, FEB3, FEB3A, FHM3
This gene encodes a voltage-dependent sodium channel alpha subunit that forms the pore-forming component of sodium channels essential for generating and propagating action potentials in neurons and muscle cells. Mutations cause febrile seizures and generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus, typically beginning in early childhood with fever-associated seizures that may progress to afebrile generalized seizures. The condition follows autosomal dominant inheritance with variable penetrance and expression within families.
