    Applications
    The KCNA1 gene is a member of a sizable gene family that codes for potassium channel production. These channels are crucial for a cell's capacity to produce and send electrical impulses because they transfer positively charged potassium atoms (potassium ions) into and out of cells. One component of a potassium channel called Kv1.1, the alpha subunit, is made according to instructions from the KCNA1 gene. These channels can be discovered in the brain, where they deliver potassium ions to neurons. The exchange of certain ions, such as potassium, between neurons controls how these cells communicate with one another. The customized KCNA1 stable cell line can be used in antibody discovery and development, potential drug candidate screening and signaling pathway researches.

    Published Data

    Fig.1 CRISPRa increases endogenous Kcna1 expression reducing neuronal excitability in vitro.

    When testing various combinations of sgRNAs and the most efficient sgRNAs, Kcna1 mRNA expression was normalized to the control LacZ sgRNA in P19 cells. The increase in Kv1.1 and glycosylated Kv1.1 (glyc) in neurons transduced with sgLacZ (blue) or dCas9A and sg19 (red) was measured using Western blots.

    Research Highlights

    Short bursts of cerebellar ataxia and dysarthria are the hallmarks of episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1), an autosomal dominant K(+) channelopathy that may also exhibit interictal myokymia. Stress on an emotional or physical level, a startle reaction, an abrupt shift in posture, or fever can all cause episodes.

    This recently discovered mutation is the first known to function in KCNA1 through a recessive mode of inheritance. These results should be interpreted as a warning for the diagnosis of channelopathies, where the identification of causal variations and appropriate therapy selection may be hampered by an undocumented clinical presentation or mode of inheritance for the variant of interest.
