Autosomal recessive spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common, fatal neuromuscular disease caused by homozygous absence of the SMN1 gene in approximately 94% of patients. However, a highly homologous SMN2 gene exists in the same chromosome interval, centromeric to SMN1, and hampers detection of SMN1. We present a new, rapid, simple, and highly reliable method for detecting the SMN1 deletion/con...
Most patients with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) have been reported to show homozygous deletion of the gene responsible for SMA, SMN1. However, whether SMA patients homozygous for the SMN1 deletion exist in Southeast Asian countries, including Vietnam, remains to be determined, because molecular genetic analyses of SMA patients from these countries have not been reported. In this preliminary st...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a common and lethal autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disorder, which is caused by mutations of the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. Additionally, the phenotype is modified by several genes nearby SMN1 in the 5q13 region. In this study, we analyzed mutations in SMN1 and quantified the modifying genes, including SMN2, NAIP, GTF2H2, and H4F5 by polymerase ...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive disorder with a carrier frequency of approximately 1 in 40. Approximately 95% of patients have homozygous deletions of exon 7 and/or 8 of the SMN1 gene. Carrier testing for SMA is relatively complex and requires quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of genomic DNA to determine SMN1 copy number. The purpose of this study was to asses...
Background and Objectives: The neuromuscular degenerative disorder, known as spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), is a common fatal disease in neonates. In most patients with SMA, exon 7 and/or exon 8 of SMN1 gene is deleted. It is reported that the deletion of exon 5 from NAIP gene may be involved in the severity of SMA disease. The present study was aimed to evaluate the genotype- phenotype correla...
OBJECTIVE Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is one of the most common severe hereditary diseases of infancy and early childhood in North America, Europe, and Asia. SMA is usually caused by deletions of the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. A closely related gene, SMN2, modifies the disease severity. SMA carriers have only 1 copy of SMN1 and are relatively common (1 in 30-50) in populations of Eu...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by loss of SMN1. A nearly identical gene, SMN2, fails to compensate for the loss of SMN1 because SMN2 produces mainly an exon 7-skipped product. The +6C in SMN1 exon 7 proceeds to include exon 7 into mRNA, while the +6U in SMN2 causes skipping of exon 7. Here, approximately 45kD proteins bound to the SMN exon 7 RNA probe was found, and identified as hnRNP...
Humans have two near identical copies of Survival Motor Neuron gene: SMN1 and SMN2. Loss of SMN1 coupled with the predominant skipping of SMN2 exon 7 causes spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a neurodegenerative disease. SMA patient cells devoid of SMN1 provide a powerful system to examine splicing pattern of various SMN2 exons. Until now, similar system to examine splicing of SMN1 exons was unavai...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive disorder, caused by homozygous absence of the survival motor neuron gene (SMN1) in approximately 94% of patients. Since most carriers have only one SMN1 gene copy, several SMN1 quantitative analyses have been used for the SMA carrier detection. We developed a reliable quantitative real-time PCR with SYBR Green I dye and studied 13 patients...
INTRODUCTION Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is one of the most significant neurodegenerative diseases amongst the autosomal-recessive genetic disorders which is caused by the absence of protein survival of motor neuron (SMN). A critical nucleotide difference in SMN2 compared to SMN1 gene leads to an inefficient protein. Hence, homozygous lack of SMN1 provides a progressive disease. Due ...
