Rett syndrome and the MECP2 gene.
First described by Andreas Rett in 1966, Rett syndrome is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder which almost exclusively aVects females. A genetic aetiology was suggested by MZ twin concordance and a case of vertical transmission of the disorder. Although the prevalence is between 1 in 10 000 and 1 in 15 000 female births, >95% of cases arise de novo so the disorder has been considered to be an ...
متن کاملDelineating the GRIN1 phenotypic spectrum
OBJECTIVE To determine the phenotypic spectrum caused by mutations in GRIN1 encoding the NMDA receptor subunit GluN1 and to investigate their underlying functional pathophysiology. METHODS We collected molecular and clinical data from several diagnostic and research cohorts. Functional consequences of GRIN1 mutations were investigated in Xenopus laevis oocytes. RESULTS We identified heteroz...

متن کاملRett syndrome: clinical review and genetic update.
Rett syndrome (RS) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder that contributes significantly to severe intellectual disability in females worldwide. It is caused by mutations in MECP2 in the majority of cases, but a proportion of atypical cases may result from mutations in CDKL5, particularly the early onset seizure variant. The relationship between MECP2 and CDKL5, and whether they cause RS throu...
متن کاملGenetic and Epileptic Features in Rett Syndrome
PURPOSE Rett syndrome is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder in females. Most have mutations in the methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene (80-90%). Epilepsy is a significant commonly accompanied feature in Rett syndrome. Our study was aimed at comprehensive analysis of genetic and clinical features in Rett syndrome patients, especially in regards to epileptic features. MATERIALS AND METH...
