Abstract excerpt
FoxG1 encoded by FOXG1 gene is a transcriptional factor interacting with the DNA of targeted genes as well as with several proteins to regulate the forebrain development. Mutations in the FOXG1 gene have been shown to cause a wide spectrum of brain disorders, including the congenital variant of Rett syndrome. In this study, the direct sequencing of FOXG1 gene revealed a novel c.645C > A (F215L) variant in the...
