Autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia type 4 due to a novel homozygous mutation in the VPS13D gene in a Saudi family.

Abstract excerpt

Vacuolar protein sorting 13 homolog D (VPS13D) gene encodes a protein involved in trafficking of membrane proteins between the trans-Golgi network and the prevacuolar compartment. This study reports a novel homozygous mutation (c.12494T>C p.Ile4165Thr) in the VPS13D gene in a Saudi female diagnosed with autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia type 4 (SCAR4). The patient's clinical presentation, including...
