The gene kcnma1 encodes the α-subunit of high-conductance calcium- and voltage-dependent K+ (BK) potassium channel. With the development of generation gene sequencing technology, many KCNMA1 mutants have been identified and are more closely related to generalized epilepsy and paroxysmal dyskinesia....
