SEARCHING FOR THE MESIAL TEMPORAL LOBE EPILEPSY GENE: VALIDATING CANDIDATE VARIANTS IDENTIFIED BY NEXT-GENERATION SEQUENCING
A family affected by mesial temporal lobe epilepsy was studied. Our group studied possible candidate variants through Sanger sequencing methods in order to compare with Next-Generation Sequencing. None of the mutations was confirmed, characterizing the methods’ low efficacy and need of further studies about such.
