Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: To analyze the cases of a family with a novel in-frame duplication variant (NM_000454.5:c.357_357 + 2dup, p.Val120dup) of SOD1 and a structural model of the mutated SOD1 protein. METHODS: The clinical profiles of three patients in the family were analyzed, including the neuropathological findings of the proband's mother. Genetic analyses were conducted for three patients. cDNA and in silico structural...
