Best practice guidelines for molecular analysis in spinal muscular atrophy.

Abstract excerpt

With a prevalence of approximately 1/10 000, and a carrier frequency of 1/40-1/60 the proximal spinal muscular atrophies (SMAs) are among the most frequent autosomal recessive hereditary disorders. Patients can be classified clinically into four groups: acute, intermediate, mild, and adult (SMA types I, II, III, and IV, respectively). The complexity and instability of the genomic region at chromosome 5q13...
