A novel three-base duplication, E243dup, of GFAP identified in a patient with Alexander disease.


ABSTRACT: Alexander disease (AxD) is a rare hereditary neurodegenerative disorder caused by glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) gene mutations, most of which are missense mutations. We present an AxD case with a novel de novo three-base duplication mutation in GFAP resulting in E243dup.
