Abstract excerpt
One variant form of late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis is an autosomal recessive inherited neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the CLN6gene. The function of the polytopic CLN6 membrane protein localized in the endoplasmic reticulum is unknown. Here we report on expression studies of three mutations (c.368G>A, c.460-462delATC, c.316insC) found in CLN6 patients predicted...
