In BXD CNS datasets, Qrr1 also modulates the expression of a set of genes implicated in the etiology of seizure and epilepsy, including Pnpo, Scn1b, Kcnma1, Socs2, and Cacna1g. Polymorphisms in the Kcnj9/Kcnj10 interval that influence expression of these genes are excellent candidates for the Szs1 locus. The gene discussed is KCNJ10; the disease is epilepsy.
