Abstract excerpt
Joubert syndrome is a neurologic disorder with a pathognomonic "molar tooth sign" on brain imaging. The purpose of this study was to identify potential mutations in a Chinese patient with Joubert syndrome by targeted massively parallel sequencing. Taking advantage of high-throughput DNA sequencing technologies, 18 Joubert-causing genes of a Chinese patient with classic Joubert syndrome were sequenced at a time,...
