Combined loss of LAP1B and LAP1C results in an early onset multisystemic nuclear envelopathy

Abstract excerpt

Nuclear envelopathies comprise a heterogeneous group of diseases caused by mutations in genes encoding nuclear envelope proteins. Mutations affecting lamina-associated polypeptide 1 (LAP1) result in two discrete phenotypes of muscular dystrophy and progressive dystonia with cerebellar atrophy. We report 7 patients presenting at birth with severe progressive neurological impairment, bilateral cataract, growth...
