Abstract excerpt
Isolated lissencephaly sequence and Miller-Dieker syndrome are related neurodevelopmental disorders caused by defects of the LIS1 gene encoding the alpha subunit of intracellular platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase. In addition to the ortholog of the human LIS1 gene (Pafaha/Lis1), the mouse genome contains two more homologs. In order to characterize the new members of this gene family, we isolated both...
