| Allelic Variant 1 |
300401.0002; PELIZAEUS-MERZBACHER DISEASE |
| Identified Mutation |
TRP162ARG; In the family with classic PMD investigated by Koeppen et al. (1987), Hudson et al. (1989) found a T-to-C transition resulting in the substitution of a charged amino acid residue, arginine, for tryptophan in 1 of the 4 hydrophobic domains of the PLP protein. A change of CGG to TGG in exon 4 was responsible for the substitution of trp162.

| Remarks |
Epilepsy; visual. handicap. since age 6 mos, obviously blind; striking optic atrophy; no retin. pigmentos., no cherry red spot; limited speech; atrophy of the extremities; total areflexia; scoliosis; pt. has gastrostomy; pos. family history; donor subject has a T>C transition at nucleotide 608 (608T>C) in exon 4 of the PLP1 gene resulting in a substitution of arginine for tryptophan at codon 163 [Trp163Arg (W163R)]; this mutation has also been described as Trp162Arg (see Koeppen et al, Ann Neurol 21:159-170, 1987) |
