    Gene mutationChromosome rearrangementEffectComments
      deletion   common recurrent ~1.2 Mb deletion that includes HIP1 and YWHAG genes and that is flanked by large complex low-copy repeats
      deletion   smaller, nonrecurrent deletions (~180–500 kb) that include HIP1 but not YWHAG suggest that deletion of HIP1 is sufficient to cause neurological disease
    Remark(s)
    Genotype/Phenotype correlations Three individuals with smaller, nonrecurrent deletions (~180–500 kb) that include HIP1 but not YWHAG suggest that deletion of HIP1 is sufficient to cause neurological disease
