Evidence favoring genetic heterogeneity for febrile convulsions.

Epilepsia - 1 Feb 2000

Racacho L J, McLachlan R S, Ebers G C, Maher J, Bulman D E

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Two large Canadian kindreds appearing to segregate febrile convulsions as an autosomal dominant trait were evaluated for linkage to three known FC loci, as well as other epilepsy loci. METHODS: Members of the two families were genotyped with microsatellite markers linked to the previously identified febrile convulsion loci, FEB1, FEB2, and GEFS+, and we performed two-point linkage analyses by assuming an...
