Refining the phenotypic spectrum of <i>PNKP</i> -related microcephaly: a study of 27 new patients

Our results provide 'microlissencephaly' as an emerging distinct phenotype linked to <i>PNKP</i> variants. As such, <i>PNKP</i> variants could be associated with four overlapping subgroups that lie along a unifying phenotypic continuum.

Abstract

Our results provide 'microlissencephaly' as an emerging distinct phenotype linked to <i>PNKP</i> variants. As such, <i>PNKP</i> variants could be associated with four overlapping subgroups that lie along a unifying phenotypic continuum.
