Abstract excerpt
A genetic diagnosis cannot be made in a considerable proportion of patients with hereditary lower motor neuron (LMN) syndromes. The GGC repeat expansion in the 5'untranslated region (5'UTR) of NOTCH2NLC gene has been reported to be associated with a group of NOTCH2NLC-related repeat expansion disorders (NRED), including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The relationship between the mutation and LMN syndromes...
