Abstract excerpt
Hemizygous Lis1 mutations cause type 1 lissencephaly, a neuronal migration disorder in humans. The Lis1+/- mouse is a model for lissencephaly; mice exhibit neuronal migration defects but are viable and fertile. On an inbred genetic background, 20% of Lis1+/- mice develop hydrocephalus and die pre...
