KCNQ2 activates EIEE7. 2 / 2
| 2

reach
"However, unlike in benign outcomes, such as normal neurodevelopment of self‐limited BFNS, KCNQ2 variants can also lead to EIEE7 (OMIM # 613720) with intractable epilepsy characteristics (Weckhuysen et al., 2012)."

reach
"By contrast, EIEE7 is nearly always caused by de novo KCNQ2 missense variants, and characterized by multiple, pharmacoresistant seizures beginning in the first few days of life, burst-suppression pattern or multifocal epileptiform activity at the EEG, and moderate to severe developmental impairment."
