A Locus for Febrile Seizures (FEB3) Maps to Chromosome 2q23-24 Ann Neurol 46:671-678, Peiffer,A.,et al, 1999 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Linkage analysis in epilepsy candidate gene/loci regions failed to show evidence for linkage to febrile seizures. However, a genomewide scan and subsequent fine mapping revealed significant evidence for a new febrile seizure locus (FEB3) on chromosome 2a23-24 with linkage to the marker D232330 (LOD score 8.08 at theta = 0.001). Haplotype analysis defined a critical 10-cM region between markers D2S141 and D2S2345 that contains the FEB3 locus.
