Claim:
1. A method for detecting the presence of a KIAA1840 nucleic acid mutation in a subject, which method comprises: (a) contacting a KIAA1840 nucleic acid from said subject with an oligonucleotide that specifically hybridizes to a KIAA1840 mutation, wherein said KIAA1840 nucleic acid is at least 90% identical to SEQ ID NO:1, and wherein said KIAA1840 mutation encodes a truncated form of the KIAA1840 protein, and (b) detecting hybridization of the oligonucleotide with said KIAA1840 nucleic acid from said subject, thereby detecting the presence of a KIAA1840 nucleic acid mutation in the subject.
