PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To elucidate the mutation of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MECP2) gene causing Rett syndrome, and to provide a method for detecting the syndrome because the development of the syndrome is largely affected by the mutation of MECP2 gene. SOLUTION: Rett syndrome is detected by determining the presence or absence of a Rett syndrome disease mutation of methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 gene. |
