Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
618323 | OMIM | Myasthenic syndrome, congenital, 25, presynaptic (CMS25) | A form of congenital myasthenic syndrome, a group of disorders characterized by failure of neuromuscular transmission, including pre-synaptic, synaptic, and post-synaptic disorders that are not of autoimmune origin. Clinical features include easy fatigability and muscle weakness. CMS25 is an autosomal recessive form characterized by hypotonia and generalized muscle weakness apparent from birth. Affected individuals have feeding difficulties and delayed motor development, usually never achieving independent ambulation. Additional variable features include eye movement abnormalities, joint contractures, and rigid spine. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
108600 | OMIM | Spastic ataxia 1, autosomal dominant (SPAX1) | An autosomal dominant form of spastic ataxia, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by lower-limb spasticity and generalized ataxia with dysarthria, impaired ocular movements, and gait disturbance. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. A mutation affecting a critical donor site for the splicing of VAMP1 isoforms leads to the loss of neuron-specific isoform 1 and subsequently results in haploinsufficiency (PubMed:22958904). Therefore, there would be less neurotransmitter exocytosis in specific regions of the brain, causing the symptoms of SPAX1. |
