Mowat-wilson Syndrome; Mows

Description

Mowat-Wilson syndrome is an autosomal dominant complex developmental disorder; individuals with functional null mutations present with mental retardation, delayed motor development, epilepsy, and a wide spectrum of clinically heterogeneous features suggestive of neurocristopathies at the cephalic, cardiac, and vagal levels. Mowat-Wilson syndrome has many clinical features in common with Goldberg-Shprintzen syndrome (OMIM ) but the 2 disorders are genetically distinct (Mowat et al., 2003). Goldberg-Shprintzen syndrome is caused by mutation in the KIAA1279 gene (OMIM ) located on 10q.
