SCN1B and Epileptic encephalopathy: Variants in the gene SCN1B, encoding the splice variants NaV-β1 and NaV-β1B, are implicated in a variety of inherited pathologies including epileptic encephalopathy (O'Malley and Isom, 2015), Brugada syndrome (BrS) (Watanabe et al., 2008; Hu et al., 2012), long-QT syndrome (LQTS) (Riuró et al., 2014), atrial arrhythmias (Watanabe et al., 2009), and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) (Hu et al., 2012) (Figure 1, Table 1).
