Review for gene: GABRA5 was set to GREEN
Added comment: 3 unrelated patients with de novo heterozygous missense mutations in GABRA5 gene. In vitro functional expression studies in HEK293 cells showed that the mutant subunit was expressed at the surface and incorporated into the channel, but the mutant channel was 10 times more sensitive to GABA compared to wildtype. This increased sensitization resulted in increased receptor desensitization to GABA, with a reduced maximal GABA-evoked current and impaired capacity to pass GABAergic chloride current.
