Abstract excerpt
Mutations in the human CDKL5 gene have been shown to cause infantile spasms, as well as Rett syndrome-like phenotype. Because CDKL5 is subjected to X chromosome inactivation (XCI), individual cells from CDKL5 mutation girls either express the wild-type or mutant allele, likely resulting in different consequences at both the cellular and molecular levels. To identify these consequences, we carried out gene...
