A Missense Mutation in a Highly Conserved Alternate Exon of Dynamin-1 Causes Epilepsy in Fitful Mice

Dynamin-1 (Dnm1) encodes a large multimeric GTPase necessary for activity-dependent membrane recycling in neurons, including synaptic vesicle endocytosis. Mice heterozygous for a novel spontaneous Dnm1 mutation—fitful—experience recurrent seizures, and homozygotes have more debilitating, often letha...
