A really original genetic study of its kind, presented by Katrine M Johannesen, shows the broad phenotypic spectrum of GABRA3 related disorders can be explained by sex and function effect of the #GABRA3 variants. International League Against Epilepsy #ILAE #IEC2023 Rikke S. Møller @Philip_K_Ahring

How to we predict whether GABA receptor variants are pathogenic and loss or gain of function? Follow the allosteric transitions, we argue in our latest letter to Brain. Thanks to our talented postdoc Serene El-Kamand, Chow and @Philip_K_Ahring, academic.oup.com/brain/advance-…

What happens if you have a GABAA receptor variant and clinical phenotype that doesn't quite fit into loss and gain of function? Our latest eBiomedicine paper by the awesome PhD student Nazanin Azarinejad Mohammadi and Rikke S. Møller can tell you why! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
