Abstract excerpt
Hereditary neuralgic amyotrophy (HNA) is an autosomal dominant disorder that is associated with episodic recurrent brachial plexus neuropathy. A mutation for HNA maps to chromosome 17q25. To refine the HNA locus further, we carried out genetic linkage studies in seven pedigrees with a high density set of DNA markers from chromosome 17q25. All pedigrees demonstrated linkage to chromosome 17q25, and an analysis of...
