Abstract

The present invention provides methods for determining the phenotype (e.g., gain-of-function or loss-of-function) of a mutation in an ion channel or receptor by using a dynamic voltage clamp. The invention also features methods of determining whether a mutation is a gain-of-function or loss-of-function mutation and treating a disease or disorder associated with the particular gain-of-function or loss-of-function mutation.
