Abstract <div class="mlktScroll"><div style="line-height:150%">Mutations in the LGI1/Epitempin gene cause autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy (ADLTE), a partial epilepsy characterized by the presence of auditory seizures. However, not all the pedigrees with a phenotype consistent with ADLTE show mutations in LGI1/Epitempin, or evidence for linkage to the 10q24 locus. Other authors as well as ourselves have found an internal repeat (EPTP, pfam# PF03736) that allowed the identification of three other genes sharing a sequence and structural similarity with LGI1/Epitempin. In this work, we present the sequencing of these genes in a set of ADLTE families without mutations in both LGI1/Epitempin and sporadic cases. No analyzed polymorphisms modified susceptibility in either the familial or sporadic forms of this partial epilepsy.div>div> direct.com/science?_ob=MImg&_imagekey=B6T34-4JYTRWV-1-3&_cdi=4936&_user=10&_orig=article&_coverDate=08%2F31%2F2006&_sk=999299997&view=c&wchp=dGLzVlz-zSkWb&md5=8a1a874deb81bdd634031c503876a80a&ie=/sdarticle.pdf"> |

Steinlein Abstract <div class="mlktScroll"><div style="line-height:150%">The Leucine-rich Glioma Inactivated-1 (LGI1) gene is supposed to be a tumor suppressor gene involved in glial tumors. Mutations in this gene were recently found to cause autosomal dominant lateral temporal lobe epilepsy (ADLTE). We have now analysed the comorbidity in a large Norwegian ADLTE family. No evidence was found that LGI1 is a high-penetrance tumor suppressor gene associated with a serious risk for malignancies in ADLTE families.div>div> direct.com/science?_ob=MImg&_imagekey=B6T34-4B0PDC4-4-1&_cdi=4936&_user=10&_orig=article&_coverDate=10%2F31%2F2003&_sk=999439997&view=c&wchp=dGLzVlz-zSkWb&md5=2707dca529a663b505e05d164a127746&ie=/sdarticle.pdf"> |
