Using whole exome sequencing, Fassio et al. identify de novo mutations in ATP6V1A, encoding the A subunit of v-ATPase, in four patients with developmental encephalopathies and epilepsy. Functional and expression studies demonstrate impaired lysosomal homeostasis, defective neurite elongation and loss of excitatory inputs in cultured neurons.
