The Genetics of Primary Microcephaly.

Annual review of genomics and human genetics - 31 Aug 2018

Jayaraman Divya, Bae Byoung-Il, Walsh Christopher A

Abstract excerpt

Primary microcephaly (MCPH, for "microcephaly primary hereditary") is a disorder of brain development that results in a head circumference more than 3 standard deviations below the mean for age and gender. It has a wide variety of causes, including toxic exposures, in utero infections, and metabolic conditions. While the genetic microcephaly syndromes are relatively rare, studying these syndromes can reveal...
