Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetically heterogeneous disease with paresis and muscle atrophy due to loss of anterior horn cell function. The survival of motor neuron gene (SMN) and neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein (NAIP) play a primary role. Both the gene homologues exist as inverted duplications on Chromosome 5q. The telomeric/functional (SMN1) and the centromeric (SMN2) copies...
