Abstract excerpt
Dominant pathogenic mutations in tyrosyl-tRNA synthetase (YARS1) are associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT), a progressive peripheral neuropathy for which no disease-modifying therapies currently exist. While recent advances in amino acid supplementation therapies suggest potential benefit for recessive aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase disorders, their applicability to dominant YARS1-associated neuropathies...
