Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: HACE1 encodes a HECT domain and ankyrin repeat containing protein regulating several small GTPases. This protein is involved in several important functions, such as cell division, protein ubiquitination, and localization. Biallelic variants in HACE1 have been implicated in spastic paraplegia and psychomotor retardation with or without seizures (MIM: 616756). Previously, 32 patients of various...
