Epilepsy and intellectual disability linked protein Shrm4 interaction with GABABRs shapes inhibitory neurotransmission

Mutations in the gene encoding Shrm4 are associated with epilepsy and intellectual disability. The authors show that Shrm4 interacts with GABABreceptors and regulates tonic inhibition in the hippocampus, and knockdown of Shrm4 in rats leads to anxiety-like behaviour and seizures.
