Abstract excerpt

Causative genes for childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) are unknown partly because families are small or phenotypically heterogeneous. In five consanguineous Tunisian families with at least two sibs with CAE, 14 patients fulfilled the diagnostic criteria for CAE (Epilepsia 1989; 30:389-399). Linkage analyses or direct sequencing excluded CACNG2, CACNA1A, CACNB4, and CACNA2D2, orthologs of genes responsible for...
