LIS1 is the main gene causing classical (isolated) lissencephaly predominating in the posterior brain regions (p>a). However, about 40% of patients with this malformation pattern show no abnormality after fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) analysis of the 17p13.3 region and LIS1 sequencing. To investigate whether alternative gene(s) or genomic deletions/duplications of LIS1 may account for the high percentage of individuals who show no abnormalities on FISH and sequencing, we performed multiplex ligation dependent probe amplification assay (MLPA) in a series of patients.
