Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and loss-of-function of the protein underlie the X-linked epilepsy associated with the W356× mutation in synapsin I. by Maila Giannandrea, Fabrizia C Guarnieri, Niels H Gehring, Elena Monzani, Fabio Benfenati, Andreas E Kulozik, Flavia Valtorta

“…Given that the NMD efficiency is highly variable among individuals and cell types, we investigated also the effects of expression of the mutant protein and found that it is expressed at lower levels compared to wild-type synapsin I, forms perinuclear aggregates and is unable to reach presynaptic terminals in mature hippocampal neurons grown in culture. …”
