Abstract:Lissencephaly is a severe brain developmental disorder; characterized by reduced brain folding due to defective neuronal migration. This study investigates the genetic basis of lissencephaly in a consanguineous family, focusing on theCLASP1gene. Whole-exome sequencing identified a novel homozygous variant (c.4442G>A p.(Arg1481His)) inCLASP1. Clinical evaluation revealed severe developmental delays, microcephaly, seizures, and lissencephaly in the affected siblings. The variant was heterozygous in the health… Show more
