Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Autosomal recessive mutations in the AP-4 (adaptor protein complex 4) complex subunit ϵ - 1 (AP-4E1) gene on chromosome 15q21.2 are known to cause spastic paraplegia 51 (SPG51). The exact phenotype of SPG51 remains poorly characterized, because only a few families have been reported as carriers of the mutation. In addition, a previous study identified an autosomal dominant mutation in the AP4E1 gene...
