A common form of defective inactivation exhibited by mutant NaVChs associated with hyperkalemic periodic paralysis, long QT syndrome, and inherited epilepsy. The defect is caused by incomplete closure of the inactivation gate (left panel) resulting in an increased level of persistent current (right panel, red trace) as compared with NaVChs with normal inactivation (black trace).
