Whole-exome sequencing associates novelCSMD1gene mutations with familial Parkinson disease

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: Despite the enormous advancements made in deciphering the genetic architecture of Parkinson disease (PD), the majority of PD is idiopathic, with single gene mutations explaining only a small proportion of the cases. METHODS: In this study, we clinically evaluated 2 unrelated Spanish families diagnosed with PD, in which known PD genes were previously excluded, and performed whole-exome sequencing...
