Abstract excerpt
Spinal muscular atrophy is the most common fatal neurogenetic disorder in infancy and early childhood, caused by insufficient expression of SMN protein due to mutations in the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. In this study, we describe the SMN1 mutation spectrum in our SMA cohort and the clinical characteristics of 30 patients with SMN1 compound heterozygous mutations. We find the c.22_23insA hotspot mutation...
