  1. aProband and both unaffected parents; bin 9 cases proband and affected siblings (7 cases), cousin (1 case) or grandfather (1 case); in the remaining 6 cases the proband alone was sequenced but with unrelated cases having the same phenotype included in this case series (3 singleton cases myaesthenic syndrome, molecular diagnosis in 1 case; 2 cases migralepsy, molecular diagnosis in 1 case)
