Additional Information:

Clinical Description OMIM Abdollahi et al. (2009) reported 2 unrelated consanguineous Pakistani families in which 4 children had severe developmental delay, hypotonia, and seizures. All had optic nerve hypoplasia and extensive polymicrogyria, with a dysplastic or absent corpus callosum and colpocephaly. ...
Molecular genetics OMIM By linkage analysis followed by candidate gene sequencing of chromosome 22q11.2 in a Pakistani family with polymicrogyria and optic nerve hypoplasia, Abdollahi et al. (2009) identified a homozygous deletion in the TUBA8 gene (605742.0001). Cellular studies implicated a ...
