Operational classification of seizure types by the International League Against Epilepsy: Position Paper of the ILAE Commission for Classification and Terminology
TLDR

Febrile seizures and generalized epilepsy associated with a mutation in the Na+-channel ß1 subunit gene SCN1B
TLDR
It is shown that co-expression of the mutant ß1 subunit with a brain Na+-channel ß subunit in Xenopus laevis oocytes demonstrates that the mutation interferes with the ability of the subunit to modulate channel-gating kinetics consistent with a loss-of-function allele, developing the theme that idiopathic epilepsies are a family of channelopathies.
