Charcot-Marie-Tooth caused by a copy number variation in myelin protein zero.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is the most common inherited disorder of the peripheral nervous system. The majority has a duplication of the peripheral myelin protein 22. CMT is otherwise caused by point mutations or small insertions/deletions in one of the 44 known CMT genes. METHODS AND RESULTS:Conventional sequencing of six CMT genes were followed by Multiplex Ligation-dependent Probe Amplification (MLPA), array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) and breakpoint analysis in a large Norwegian CMT pedigree. Affected had an extra copy of the myelin protein zero (MPZ) gene. CONCLUSION:To our knowledge this is the first non-peripheral myelin protein 22 copy number variation to cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.
