behavior/neurological
• opening of the home cage of adult mutants induces generalized tonic-clonic seizures that correlate with high amplitude and high frequency generalized synchronized activity followed by post-ictal depression in the theta frequency rage (3-6 Hz)
• seizures commence within seconds of cage opening and include vocalization, freezing, tail stiffing, back arching, bilateral limb movements, and loss of posture, followed by stereotypical grooming behavior
• the symptomatic seizure state is characterized by resistance to the epileptiform-promoting effects of 4-aminopyridine, by hypersensitivity to blockage of GABA(A) receptors and by the emergence of unresponsiveness to NMDA receptor antagonism
• opening of the home cage of adult mutants induces generalized tonic-clonic seizures
• however, mice exhibit spontaneous seizures only vary rarely

• opening of the home cage of adult mutants induces generalized tonic-clonic seizures
• however, mice exhibit spontaneous seizures only vary rarely
• EEG indicates an abrupt transition during early adulthood from a seizure-free presymptomatic latent state to a consistent symptomatic state of sensory-induced seizures
• EEG indicates that during the latent period, larger field responses are elicited in slices from mutants than in controls
