About this Research Topic
Today, the combination of next-generation sequencing and bioinformatics has revolutionized the field of medical genetics allowing us to identify rare pathogenic variants in known and novel genes. This Research Topic aims to bring together knowledge and provide an up to date high impact on clinical and molecular translational research in NCLs.
Original Research is of interest, but we also welcome comprehensive or mini-review articles, method papers, case reports (with respect to the scope of the journal) and clinical trial results on a range, but not limited, of topics related to genetics, epidemiology, epigenetics, transcriptomis, proteomics, methylomics and other omics in humans, cell and animal models.
Keywords: Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis, Batten disease, NCLs, lysosomal storage disorders, molecular genetics, epigenetics.
Important Note: All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
