Abstract

Genetic Predisposition to Disease Genetic Association Studies Pedigree Humans Polymorphism, Single Nucleotide Mutation Peripheral Nervous System Diseases - genetics Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease - genetics
For the first time, medical sequencing has been successfully performed at the genome level to identify the causative gene in an individual with autosomal recessive Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. The results of sequencing a proband with this condition highlight some of the opportunities and challenges of this seemingly ultimate approach to human genetics research and diagnostics.
