Novel Copy Number Deletion Involving NUS1 Associated With Epilepsy, Tremor, and Intellectual Disability. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Copy number variations (CNVs) contribute to various disorders including intellectual disability, developmental disorders, and cancer. This study identifies a de novo 2.62 Mb deletion at 6q22.1_q22.31, implicating the NUS1 gene in epilepsy, spinal abnormalities, and intellectual disability, thereby expanding its known phenotypic associations.

Purine Metabolism and Dystonia: Perspectives of a Long‐Promised Relationship
Purine pool imbalance in purine metabolism disorders, such as Lesch–Nyhan disease, intersects with dystonia pathogenesis. The recent discovery of gain‐of‐function IMPDH2 pathogenic variants in patients with prominent dystonic manifestations provides new insights into the link between dystonia and purinergic system defects.

Paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis
Paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis (PKC) is characterized by short paroxysms of focal or generalized involuntary movement induced by sudden movements, and is a well-known disease in the neurologic literature, but only 4 cases have been reported in Korea. The purpose of the presentation is to clarify the clinical features of PKC in Korea.
