Abstract
- The article discusses the results of a genetic study on a cohort of 15 consanguineous families with a microcephaly (MCPH) phenotype from the Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) territory in Northern Pakistan. It suggests that the high incidence of MCPH in Northern Pakistan can be attributed to ASPM mutations which coincides with a high percentage of ASPM mutations in MCPH worldwide.
