Identification of FOXG1 mutations in infantile hypotonia and postnatal microcephaly.

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT: FOXG1, located at chromosome 14q12, is critical for brain development, and patients with FOXG1 mutation exhibit developmental encephalopathy with high phenotypic variability, known as FOXG1 syndrome. Here, we report 3 cases of FOXG1 syndrome that presented with infantile hypotonia and microcephaly.A total of 145 children with developmental delay and/or hypotonia were evaluated by whole-exome sequencing...
