Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To diagnose a Chinese benign familial neonatal convulsions (BFNC) family at the level of gene and investigate its molecular pathogenesis. METHODS: All family members were studied by clinical examinations and linkage analysis. Mutation analysis of KCNQ2 gene was made by means of polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-direct sequencing and PCR-single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) in the proband, 16...
