To explore the genetic cause of a four-generation severe intellectual disability in a Chinese family using nanopore sequencing and to provide genetic counseling and reproductive guidance for family members. Multiple genetic analyses of the proband and family members were performed, including chromosome karyotype analysis, whole exome sequencing, nanopore sequencing, PCR amplification, and Sanger sequencing. The results of G-binding karyotyping, CGG repeats for FMR1, GGC repeats for NOTCH2NCL, and trio-whole-exome sequencing were negative for the proband and his parents.
