Item A locus for juvenile myoclonic epilepsy maps to 2q33-q36(HUMAN GENETICS, 2010) Ratnapriya, R; Vijai, J; Kadandale, JS; Iyer, RS; Radhakrishnan, K; Anand, AWe performed a whole genome linkage analysis in a three-generation south Indian family with multiple members affected with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). The maximum two-point LOD score obtained was 3.32 at recombination fraction (theta) = 0 for D2S2248. The highest multipoint score of 3.59 was observed for the genomic interval between D2S2322 and D2S2228 at the chromosomal region 2q33-q36. Proximal and distal boundaries of the critical genetic interval were defined by D2S116 and D2S2390, respectively. A 24-Mb haplotype was found to co-segregate with JME in the family. While any potentially causative variant in the functional candidate genes, SLC4A3, SLC23A3, SLC11A1 and KCNE4, was not detected, we propose to examine brain-expressed NRP2, MAP2, PAX3, GPR1, TNS1 and DNPEP, and other such positional candidate genes to identify the disease-causing gene for the disorder.Item Hemispheric intracranial lipoma with seizure: Look under the carpet(NEUROLOGY INDIA, 2011) Cherian, A; Baheti, NN; Menon, R; Iyer, RSItem Oxcarbazepine induced worsening of seizures in Jeavons syndrome: Lessons learnt from an interesting presentation(NEUROLOGY INDIA, 2011) Menon, R; Baheti, NN; Cherian, A; Iyer, RSItem The 'heart appearance' sign in MRI in bilateral medial medullary infarction(POSTGRADUATE MEDICAL JOURNAL, 2011) Krishnan, M; Rajan, P; Kesavadas, C; Iyer, RS
