(i) Neonatal onset seizures responding to pyridoxal 5’-phosphate;

(ii) Infantile spasms (onset 5 months) responsive to pyridoxal 5’-phosphate;

(iii) Seizures starting under 3 months of age responding to pyridoxine.

Where parent DNA available inheritance was investigated and the allele carrying the mutation is indicated as P (paternal) or M (maternal).

*Sibling of Patient 3, no seizures as treated prophylactically;

**Second mutation not found, complementary DNA and genomic DNA sequenced;

ac.[148G>A] and c.[364-1G>A] were inherited in cis, this was confirmed by analysing parental DNA;

b No parental DNA was available to ascertain which muation R116Q was in cis with;

cAssume that R116Q has been inherited in cis with R225H, no parental DNA was available to confirm this.
