Abstract excerpt
Germline gain of function variations in the AKT3 gene cause brain overgrowth syndrome with megalencephaly and diffuse bilateral cortical malformations. Here we report a child with megalencephaly, who is a carrier of a novel heterozygous missense variant in the AKT3 gene NM_005465.7:c.964G>T,p.Asp322Tyr.
