Abstract excerpt

Structural and sequence variation have been described in several members of the contactin (CNTN) and contactin-associated protein (CNTNAP) gene families in association with neurodevelopmental disorders, including autism. Using array comparative genome hybridization (CGH), we identified a maternally inherited ∼535 kb deletion at 3p26.3 encompassing the 5' end of the contactin 4 gene (CNTN4) in a patient with...
