Gene deletions in Arab patients with spinal muscular atrophy.

Journal of child neurology - 1 Aug 1997

Haider M Z, Moosa A

Abstract excerpt

Spinal muscular atrophy is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by degeneration of lower motor neurons. We have investigated the presence of survival motor neuron gene and neuronal apoptosis inhibitory protein gene deletions in 17 Arab and 1 Indian families with spinal muscular atrophy (15 type I and 3 type II). Homologous deletions were detected in exons 7 and 8 of the survival motor neuron gene and...
