Abstract excerpt

Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME) is the most common idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs), affecting 12-30% of all epilepsies in medical centers. To date genetic linkage studies have revealed putative loci on different chromosomes, but these findings are still inconclusive about which gene precisely is responsible for the disease. Here, we report the genetic and clinical analysis of a (JME) consanguineous...
