Genotyping data from one patient with unexplained mental retardation and a deletion in 15q13. Homo sapiens

Recurrent deletions on 15q13.3 have been identified as a predisposition to mental retardation, epilepsy and psychiatric disease. We report compound heterozygous deletions on 15q13.3 in one patients with severe encephalopathy and seizures. Overall design: We analysed two independent patients with severe encephalopathy and seizures and found heterozygous deletions on 15q13.3 in both patients.
