Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: Recent revision of the lissencephaly critical region on chromosome 17p13.3 and confirmation of LIS1 as the causative gene for classical lissencephaly has allowed the development and application of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) probes corresponding directly to this gene. METHOD: We have analyzed patients with isolated lissencephaly sequence (ILS) by FISH with probes at D17S379, an anonymous...
