Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are a group of inherited neuromuscular junction (NMJ) disorders arising from gene variants encoding diverse NMJ proteins. Recently, the VAMP1 gene, responsible for encoding the vesicle-associated membrane protein 1 (VAMP1), has been associated with CMS. METHODS: This study presents a characterization of five new individuals with VAMP1-related CMS, providing...
