Background
Biallelic intronic AAGGG repeat expansions in the replication factor complex subunit 1 (RFC1) gene were identified as the leading cause of cerebellar ataxia, neuropathy, vestibular areflexia syndrome. Patients exhibit significant clinical heterogeneity and variable disease course, but no potential biomarker has been identified to date.
Objectives
In this multicenter cross‐sectional study,...
Background and purpose
Mutations in the alpha‐B‐crystallin (CRYAB) gene have initially been associated with myofibrillar myopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and cataracts. For the first time, peripheral neuropathy is reported here as a novel phenotype associated with CRYAB.
Methods
Whole‐exome sequencing was performed in two unrelated families with genetically unsolved axonal Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease...
