Targeted sequencing of 351 candidate genes for epileptic encephalopathy in a large cohort of patients

Abstract

Mutations in genes described in OMIM as, for example, intellectual disability gene can lead to phenotypes that get classified as EE in the clinic. We confirmed existing literature reports that de novo loss-of-function HNRNPUmutations lead to severe developmental delay and febrile seizures in the first year of life.
