  • Received Date: 2021-06-20
  • To discuss genetic characteristics of infantile Alexandria disease. Patients with unexplained repeated convulsions and abnormal white matter were subjected to high-throughput sequencing and full-exome sequencing to screen for pathogenic genes. Finally, gene mutations were verified in family members by Sanger sequencing. A GFAP gene mutation c.1249delG (p.Asp417MetfsTer15) was detected in patients. It indicates that the GFAP gene c.1249delG mutation can cause infantile Alexandria disease in Chinese.
