Structural abnormalities of the AChR caused by mutations underlying congenital myasthenic syndromes
The objective was to define the molecular mechanisms underlying congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) by studying mutations within genes encoding the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) and related proteins at the neuromuscular junction.

Congenital myasthenic syndromes due to mutations in ALG2 and ALG14
Congenital myasthenic syndromes are a heterogeneous group of inherited disorders that arise from impaired signal transmission at the neuromuscular synapse. They are characterized by fatigable muscle weakness.

CONGENITAL MYASTHENIC SYNDROME: A CASE REPORT
Congenital myasthenic syndrome: a case report: Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are diseases of the neuromuscular junction. They usually belong to the disease groups that begin in the infantile or childhood period and carry genetic characteristics ...

Identification of mutations in the MYO9A gene in patients with congenital myasthenic syndrome [PDF]
Congenital myasthenic syndromes result from defects in the neuromuscular junction. Using whole exome sequencing, O\u27Connor et al. identify mutations in a novel candidate gene, MYO9A, which encodes an unconventional myosin.
