Cleveland Clinic-Led Research Identifies Gene Linked To Epilepsy Movement Disorder

Future research will seek to use the discovery to identify and develop new
treatments for the neurological conditions. It is caused by disruptions in the
electrical signals of the brain, resulting in seizures.
By examining genetic markers and landmarks on human chromosomes 1 to 22,
researchers identified a mutation in an ion channel gene, KCNMA1 (making the
BK potassium channel), that causes epilepsy and PD., chairman of the Department of Neurology at the Clinic.

"The study is significant clinically because it raises awareness of

known to have epilepsy, PD or both conditions; four had epilepsy only; seven
had PD only, and five suffered from both conditions.
