| MYELIN PROTEINS AND METABOLISM |
Gencic et al (Am J Hum Genet 45:435-442,1989) reported that DNA from a lymphoblastoid culture of this patient showed a single base transition (C to T) in exon 5 of the myelin proteolipid protein gene which causes a serine substitution for proline at the carboxy end of the protein. |

| Gene |
PLP1 |
| Chromosomal Location |
Xq22 |
| Allelic Variant 1 |
300401.0001; PELIZAEUS-MERZBACHER DISEASE |
| Identified Mutation |
PRO215SER; Gencic et al. [Am. J. Hum. Genet. 45: 435 (1989)] described a missense mutation in exon 5 of the PLP gene, with a C-to-T transition creating a serine substitution for proline at the carboxy end of the protein, in a patient with the classic form (type I) of PMD. |
| Remarks |
Clinically affected; poor head control and nystagmus noted at 3 months of age; spastic quadriparesis evident by age 4 years; chorioathetotic movements began between age 8-10 years; optic atrophy; dysconjugate eye movements with jerky vertical and rotatory nystagmus; developed muscle spasms in late teens; at age 22 years weight = 46 pounds, length = 124 cm, and head circumference = 50.5 cm; mild exophthalmos; at age 22 years no longer evidence of nystagmus or chorioathetotic movements; affected brother died of pneumonia at age 10 years; donor subject is hemizygous for a C>T transition at nucleotide 643 in exon 5 of the PLP1 gene [643C>T] resulting in a substitution of serine for proline at codon 215 [Pro215Ser (P215S)].
