Loss-of-function (LOF) variants in KCNA1, the gene coding for KV1.1 channels, are associated with episodic ataxia type 1 (EA1), characterized by seconds to minutes-lasting attacks including gait incoordination, limb ataxia, truncal instability, dysarthria, nystagmus, tremor, and occasionally seizures, but also persistent neuromuscular symptoms like myokymia or neuromyotonia. The gene discussed is KCNA1; the disease is hereditary continuous muscle fiber activity.
