A novel germline PIGA mutation in Ferro‐Cerebro‐Cutaneous syndrome: A neurodegenerative X‐linked epileptic encephalopathy with systemic iron‐overload
20 Nov 2013
Abstract excerpt
Three related males presented with a newly recognized x-linked syndrome associated with neurodegeneration, cutaneous abnormalities, and systemic iron overload. Linkage studies demonstrated that they shared a haplotype on Xp21.3-Xp22.2 and exome sequencing was used to identify candidate variants. Of the segregating variants, only a PIGA mutation segregated with disease in the family. The c.328_330delCCT PIGA...
