Disable default layer selection keyboard shortcuts

Does anyone know if there's a way to disable the default Opt/Alt + [ and Opt/Alt + ] keyboard shortcuts in PS? I've looked through the keyboard shortcut summary and can't find a relavant mapping to edit.

 

Thanks in advance.

    Some shortcuts are not listed and thus are not available to edit. I am afraid this is one of them.

    What is the default for those shortcuts?  I use Ctrl + [  and Ctrl + ] but not Alt + [

    By default these shortcuts move the layer selection up and down the layer stack. I find that I frequently trigger the shortcut accidently when adjust the brush size with the clone stamp and healing brush leading edits to occur on unintended layers. It would be helpful to disable this shortcut since I never find myself needing to cycle through the layer stack via the keyboard.
