Fluorescence-based drug repurposing screen of the potassium channel, Kv3.1 with V434L mutation

Kv3.1 is a voltage-gated potassium channel encoded by the KCNC1 gene. At the recent SLAS EU meeting, we presented a poster to demonstrate how a cell line expressing the KCNC1 V434L mutation was generated and validated using biophysical and pharmacological methods, then used to screen approximately 6,800 compounds from The Broad Institute Repurposing Hub to identify inhibitors for potential use in the treatment of patients with this rare mutation.
