PRRT2

PRRT2 is a transmembrane protein containing a proline-rich domain in its N-terminal half. Studies in mice suggest that it is predominantly expressed in brain and spinal cord in embryonic and postnatal stages. Mutations in this gene are associated with episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia-1.

Proline Rich Transmembrane Protein 2

As a component of the outer core of AMPAR complex, may be involved in synaptic transmission in the central nervous system. In hippocampal neurons, in presynaptic terminals, plays an important role in the final steps of neurotransmitter release, possibly by regulating Ca2+-sensing. In the cerebellum, may inhibit SNARE complex formation and down-regulate short-term facilitation.

Episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia 1 (EKD1):
An autosomal dominant neurologic condition characterized by recurrent and brief attacks of abnormal involuntary movements, triggered by sudden voluntary movement. These attacks usually have onset during childhood or early adulthood and can involve dystonic postures, chorea, or athetosis.
Convulsions, familial infantile, with paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA):
A syndrome characterized by clinical features of benign familial infantile seizures and episodic kinesigenic dyskinesia. Benign familial infantile seizures is a disorder characterized by afebrile seizures occurring during the first year of life, without neurologic sequelae. Paroxysmal choreoathetosis is a disorder of involuntary movements characterized by attacks that occur spontaneously or are induced by a variety of stimuli.
Seizures, benign familial infantile, 2 (BFIS2):
A form of benign familial infantile epilepsy, a neurologic disorder characterized by afebrile seizures occurring in clusters during the first year of life, without neurologic sequelae. BFIS2 inheritance is autosomal dominant.
