Abstract
The electrophysiological findings of p.Thr140Met are similar to those found in thyrotoxic PP caused by Kir2.6 mutations. Also, the homologous Thr140 residue is mutated in Kir2.6. This supports the idea that Kir2.2 p.Thr140Met conveys susceptibility to SPP and should be included in genetic screening.
