Abstract excerpt

Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizure plus (GEFS+) is an autosomal dominant disorder. In the literature, 5 responsible genes were identified and 2 novel susceptibility loci for GEFS+ at 2p24 and 8p23-p21 were reported, indicating the genetic heterogeneity of this disorder. The aim of this report is to identify the responsible loci in a large affected Tunisian family by performing a 10cM density genome-wide...
