We used a combination of immunocytochemical and cellular approaches to explore, on patients’ derived fibroblasts, the functional consequences of two TUBB variants: the novel mutation (p.N52S), associated with basal ganglia and cerebellar dysgenesis, and the previously reported variant (p.M73T), linked to microcephaly, corpus callosum agenesis and CSC-KT skin phenotype. Here, TUBB is linked to microcephaly.
