Whole-exome sequencing identifies a novel de novo mutation in DYNC1H1 in epileptic encephalopathies

Abstract Epileptic encephalopathies (EE) are a group of severe childhood epilepsy disorders characterized by intractable seizures, cognitive impairment and neurological deficits. Recent whole-exome sequencing (WES) studies have implicated significant contribution of de novo mutations to EE. In this...
