Quantitative Analysis ofSMN1Gene and Estimation ofSMN1Deletion Carrier Frequency in Korean Population based on Real-Time PCR [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Korean Medical Science, 2004
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.

Mutational analysis of SMN gene in patients with spinal muscular atrophy and the correlation between mutation and the severity of clinical manifestations [PDF]

open access: yesĶazaķstannyṇ Klinikalyķ Medicinasy, 2017
Objective: studying of mutations in the SMN1, SMN2 and NAIP genes in the diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy and determining the correlation between the mutation and the severity of clinical manifestations.

WDR79/TCAB1 plays a conserved role in the control of locomotion and ameliorates phenotypic defects in SMA models [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017

SMN1 Deletions Among Singaporean Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy

open access: yesAnnals of the Academy of Medicine, Singapore, 2005
Introduction: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder characterised by degeneration of spinal cord anterior horn cells, leading to muscular atrophy. It is the second most frequent autosomal recessive disease among Caucasian populations with a prevalence of between 1 in 6000 and 1 in 10,000 live births, and a ...

Detection of SMN1 loss with PCR-based screening test

open access: yesBulletin of Russian State Medical University, 2023
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an inherited neuromuscular disease characterized by progressive skeletal muscular weakness and atrophy. The newborn screening for spinal muscular atrophy should define all molecular forms of SMA. The aim of this study is to compare a PCR-based test for detection of homozygous SMN1 loss with multiple ligation probe ...

Atrofias musculares espinales no asociadas a SMN1

open access: yesRevista Médica Clínica Las Condes, 2018
RESUMEN: Las atrofias musculares espinales no-5q son un conjunto de entidades hereditarias, clínica y genéticamente heterogéneas secundarias a compromiso de las células del asta anterior de la médula. No están asociadas a deleción del gen de sobrevida de la motoneurona (SMN1) responsable de la forma más conocida y clásica de atrofia muscular espinal ...

Unaffected patients with a homozygous absence of the SMN1 gene [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2008
In this report, we present three families in which we identified asymptomatic carriers of a homozygous absence of the SMN1 gene. In the first family, the bialleleic deletion was found in three of four siblings: two affected brothers (SMA type 3a and 3b) and a 25-years-old asymptomatic sister. All of them have four SMN2 copies.

A multi-exon-skipping detection assay reveals surprising diversity of splice isoforms of spinal muscular atrophy genes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
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.
