Original Kurzfassung:
A candidate gene approach was used to identify causative gene mutations, using Sanger se-
quencing.KCNJ18promoteractivitywasanalyzedintransfectedHEK293cellswithaluciferase
assay, andfunctional analysis ofKir2.6 channels wasperformed withthe two-electrode voltage-
clamp technique. Some investigations usedexperimental designs based on balanced incomplete block designs from planar near-rings.
