Abstract excerpt
AIM OF THE STUDY: To investigate the mutation frequency of SPG11, SPG15, SPG5 and SPG7 in China. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We have scanned the whole exons of KIAA1840, ZFYVE26, SPG7 and CYP7B1 genes in a group of 36 unrelated Chinese ARHSP families. RESULTS: SPG11 mutations were found in 33.33% (12/36) of ARHSP patients in our study, and no mutation was identified in SPG15, SPG5 or SPG7 genes. Among the SPG11...
