However, in 2010, 4 patients were reported with a microduplication only in the <i>HIP1</i> and <i>YWHAG</i> genes. We refer to this as a distal 7q11.23 duplication (dup7q11.23D). Here, we report the fifth de novo patient with dup7q11.23D, whose symptoms may be explained by <i>YWHAG</i> overexpression as was demonstrated recently in ...[more]
