Identified Mutation |
GLY127GLY |
Remarks |
Clinically affected; jerky eye movements about age 3 months; head bobbing; rotary nystagmus; developmental delay; moderate hypotonia; truncal titubation; dysmetria and tremor; donor subject is hemizygous for a C>G transversion at nucleotide 381 in exon 3 of the PLP1 gene [381C>G] resulting in the retention of glycine at codon 127 [Gly127Gly (G127G)].
