Mutations in TUBG1, DYNC1H1, KIF5C and KIF2A cause malformations of cortical development and microcephaly

Jamel Chelly, Nicholas Cowan and colleagues report mutations in TUBG1 , DYNC1H1 , KIF2A and KIF5C in individuals with malformations of cortical development and microcephaly. Their findings emphasize the importance of centrosomal and microtubule-related proteins for normal brain development. The gene...
