Grant-in-Aid for Challenging Exploratory Research
Primary microcephaly is partially caused by deficiencies in DNA Damage Response system (DDR system). As prevalence of these genetic disorders are very rare and the patients usually display overlapping clinical features, we often face with difficulties in the clinical diagnosis.In this project, we aimed to develop a system helpful in the differential diagnosis of microcephaly and similar conditions. The developed system comprises next generation DNA sequencing (NGS) as well as DDR activity assays for detecting deficiencies in double strand break (DSB) repair and nucleotide excision repair (NER).
