Missense mutations as well as a null allele of the human glycine receptor alpha1 subunit gene GLRA1 result in the neurological disorder hyperekplexia [startle disease, stiff baby syndrome, Mendelian Inheritance in Man (MIM) #149400]. In a pedigree showing dominant transmission of hyperekplexia, we identified a novel point mutation C1128A of GLRA1. This mutation encodes an amino acid substitutio...
Zn(2+) is thought to modulate neurotransmission by affecting currents mediated by ligand-gated ion channels and transmitter reuptake by Na(+)-dependent transporter systems. Here, we examined the in vivo relevance of Zn(2+) neuromodulation by producing knockin mice carrying the mutation D80A in the glycine receptor (GlyR) alpha1 subunit gene (Glra1). This substitution selectively eliminates the ...
IMPORTANCE Isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency (ISOD) causes severe intellectual disability, epilepsy, and shortened life expectancy. Intractable seizures are invariable in children with ISOD; however, to our knowledge, infantile spasms with a corresponding hypsarrhythmia pattern on electroencephalogram have never been reported. In addition, the nonepileptic paroxysmal movement disorder hyperek...
The receptor for the inhibitory neurotransmitter glycine is a member of the ligand-gated ion channel receptor superfamily. Point mutations in the gene encoding the alpha 1 subunit of the glycine receptor-channel complex (GlyR) have recently been identified in pedigrees with the autosomal dominant neurological disorder, startle disease (hyperekplexia). These mutations result in the substitution ...
Glycinergic neurotransmission is a major inhibitory influence in the CNS and its disruption triggers a paediatric and adult startle disorder, hyperekplexia. The postsynaptic α(1)-subunit (GLRA1) of the inhibitory glycine receptor (GlyR) and the cognate presynaptic glycine transporter (SLC6A5/GlyT2) are well-established genes of effect in hyperekplexia. Nevertheless, 52% of cases (117 from 232) ...
The pontocerebellar hypoplasias (PCHs) are a heterogeneous group of autosomal recessive disorders characterized by hypoplasia of the ventral pons and cerebellum, with variable cerebral involvement and severe psychomotor retardation. Eight different subtypes (PCH1-8) have been reported up to now. PCH2 is the most common type, generally caused by homozygous mutations in the TSEN54 gene and charac...
Fast synaptic neurotransmission is mediated by transmitter-activated conformational changes in ligand-gated ion channel receptors, culminating in opening of the integral ion channel pore. Human hereditary hyperekplexia, or startle disease, is caused by mutations in both the intracellular or extracellular loops flanking the pore-lining M2 domain of the glycine receptor alpha1 subunit. These flan...
BACKGROUND Hyperekplexia (HPX) is a rare non-epileptic disorder manifesting immediately after birth with exaggerated persistent startle reaction to unexpected auditory, somatosensory and visual stimuli, and non-habituating generalized flexor spasm in response to tapping of the nasal bridge (glabellar tap) which forms its clinical hallmark. The course of the disease is usually benign with sponta...
BACKGROUND The major and minor forms of hereditary hyperekplexia (HE) are characterized by excessive startle responses, which are accompanied by transient stiffness only in major HE; patients with major HE also have continuous stiffness during infancy. A point mutation has been identified for major HE in the gene encoding the alpha 1 subunit of the glycine receptor but not for minor HE. OBJEC...
