A clinical variant in SCN1A inherited from a mosaic father cosegregates with a novel variant to cause Dravet syndrome in a consanguineous family

Highlights • A consanguineous family from Turkey with two children resembling Dravet syndrome. • Implementation of a combined analysis of exome sequencing and SNP genotyping. • Two SCN1A variants detected; a mosaic clinical variant coinherited with a novel one. • Presence of both consanguinity and m...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • A consanguineous family from Turkey with two children resembling Dravet syndrome. • Implementation of a combined analysis of exome sequencing and SNP genotyping. • Two SCN1A variants detected; a mosaic clinical variant coinherited with a novel one. • Presence of both consanguinity and mosaicism complicate inheritance pattern. • Heterozygous variants spotted in the family aid diagnosis and genetic counseling.
