Description: (OMIM) Autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy is a specific form of temporal lobe epilepsy characterized by partial seizures originating from the temporal lobe. Seizures are usually accompanied by sensory symptoms, most often auditory in nature (summary by Winawer ...
Clinical Description OMIM Most partial or focal epilepsies in which seizures begin in a specific brain region are assumed to be nongenetic. However, relatives of probands with partial epilepsy have an increased risk of epilepsy compared with the general population, suggesting ...
Molecular genetics OMIM Kalachikov et al. (2002) constructed a complete, 4.2-Mb physical map across the genetically implicated disease-gene region, identified 28 putative genes, and resequenced all or part of 21 genes before identifying presumptive mutations in 1 copy of the leucine-rich, ...
Diagnosis GeneReviews The diagnosis of autosomal dominant partial epilepsy with auditory features (ADPEAF), also known as autosomal dominant lateral temporal epilepsy (ADLTE), is based on the following:...
Clinical Description GeneReviews Autosomal dominant partial epilepsy with auditory features (ADPEAF) is characterized by focal epilepsy not caused by a previous illness or injury, with auditory symptoms and/or receptive aphasia as prominent ictal manifestations. Age at onset has ranged from four to 50 years in previously reported families [Winawer et al 2000, Brodtkorb et al 2002, Winawer et al 2002, Michelucci et al 2003], but is usually in adolescence or early adulthood. The prominent auditory symptoms and aphasia are thought to reflect a localization of the epileptogenic zone in the lateral temporal lobe; accordingly ADPEAF is also known as autosomal dominant lateral temporal epilepsy (ADLTE)....
Genotype-Phenotype Correlations GeneReviews A study of 36 published ADPEAF families with LGI1 mutations evaluated mutation clustering within the gene and associations of phenotypic features with both mutation location (N-terminal leucine-rich repeats [LRR] domain and C-terminal epitempin repeat [EPTP] domain) and predicted effect (truncation or missense) [Ho et al 2012]. Mutations clustered significantly in the LRR domain of LGI1. Also, auditory symptoms were less frequent in individuals with truncation mutations in the EPTP domain than in those with other mutation type/domain combinations. ...
