    We describe a Brazilian family in which inheritance of a G106R mutation in the SPG6 gene (also know as NIPA1) resulted in an autosomal dominant form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (ADHSP). Clinical investigations indicated that this family has a pure form of spastic paraplegia. All patients presented with gait difficulty in their twenties, progressing to frank spastic paraplegia during the next decade. Our report further supports evidence that mutations in SPG6 cause ADHSP.

    All links from this record

    • Related Articles

      Calculated set of PubMed citations closely related to the selected article(s) retrieved using a word weight algorithm. Related articles are displayed in ranked order from most to least relevant, with the “linked from” citation displayed first.

    • Gene

      Gene records that cite the current articles. Citations in Gene are added manually by NCBI or imported from outside public resources.

    • HomoloGene

      HomoloGene clusters of homologous genes and sequences that cite the current articles. These are references on the Gene and sequence records in the HomoloGene entry.

    • Nucleotide (RefSeq)

      NCBI nucleotide Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that are cited in the current articles, included in the corresponding Gene Reference into Function, or that include the PubMed articles as references.

    • Nucleotide (Weighted)

      Nucleotide records associated with the current articles through the Gene database. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.

    • OMIM (calculated)

      Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) records that include the current articles as references in the light bulb links within or in the citations at the end of the OMIM record. The references available through the light bulb link are collected using the PubMed related articles algorithm to identify records with similar terminology to the OMIM record.

    • Protein (RefSeq)

      NCBI protein Reference Sequences (RefSeqs) that are cited in the current articles, included in the corresponding Gene Reference into Function, or that include the PubMed articles as references.

    • Protein (Weighted)

      Protein records associated with the current articles through related Gene database records. These are the related sequences on the Gene record that are added manually by NCBI.

    • Taxonomy via GenBank

      Taxonomy records associated with the current articles through taxonomic information on related molecular database records (Nucleotide, Protein, Gene, SNP, Structure).

    • UniGene

      UniGene clusters of expressed sequences that are associated with the current articles through references on the clustered sequence records and related Gene records.

    • GEO Profiles

      Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) Profiles of molecular abundance data. The current articles are references on the Gene record associated with the GEO profile.
