A Novel CFA3 Locus Encompassing KCNIP4 Is Associated with Idiopathic Epilepsy in Siberian Huskies
as a major risk locus for idiopathic epilepsy in Siberian Huskies. Fine-mapping with high-coverage sequencing and functional follow-up will be required to pinpoint the causal variant(s) and support development of risk assessment tools. Until those studies are completed, this marker should be regarded as a research finding rather than a predictive test.
