Infant and adult SCA13 mutations differentially affect Purkinje cell excitability, maturation, and viability in vivo

Mutations in KCNC3, which encodes the Kv3.3 K+ channel, cause spinocerebellar ataxia 13 (SCA13). SCA13 exists in distinct forms with onset in infancy or adulthood. Using zebrafish, we tested the hypothesis that infant- and adult-onset mutations differentially affect the excitability and viability of...
