Sharing our latest work, an ALS-related KCNQ2 splice variant that yields a dead channel (no K+ permeability), aggregates in neurons and causes intrinsic hyperexcitability.
Thanks to co-firsts Kelly and Peter, Kiskinis, Eggan and Fratta groups and others.

TDP-43-dependent mis-splicing of KCNQ2 triggers intrinsic neuronal hyperexcitability in ALS/FTD - Nature Neuroscience
TDP-43 dysfunction in ALS/FTD causes faulty splicing of the KCNQ2 ion channel, leading to toxic protein buildup, neuron hyperactivity and a potential new biomarker and treatment target using RNA-based...
