BACKGROUND: Assessment of the penetrance of disease-causing mutations is extremely important for developing clinical applications of gene discovery, such as genetic testing and counseling. Mutations in the leucine-rich, glioma inactivated 1 gene (LGI1) have been identified in about 50% of families with autosomal dominant partial epilepsy with auditory features (ADPEAF), but estimates of LGI1 mutation penetrance...
