Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To map the gene responsible for autosomal dominant pure hereditary spastic paraplegia (ADPHSP) in a large affected family. BACKGROUND: Autosomal dominant pure hereditary spastic paraplegia (ADPHSP) is genetically heterogeneous, and loci have been mapped at chromosomes 2p (SPG4), 14q (SPG3), 15q (SPG6), and recently, in a single family, at chromosome 8q24 (SPG8). METHODS: The authors carried out a...
