A Novel Mutation p.A59P in N-Terminal Domain of Methyl-CpG-Binding Protein 2 Confers Phenotypic Variability in 3 Cases of Tunisian Rett Patients: Clinical Evaluations and In Silico Investigations.

Abstract excerpt

Rett syndrome is a monogenic X-linked dominant neurodevelopmental disorder related to mutation in MECP2, which encodes the methyl-CpG-binding protein MeCP2. The aim of this study was to search for mutations of MECP2 gene in Tunisian Rett patients and to evaluate the impact of the found variants on structural and functional features of MeCP2. The result of mutation analysis revealed that 3 Rett patients shared the...
