Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A) is an inherited axonal peripheral neuropathy mainly caused by mutations in the mitofusin 2 (MFN2) gene encoding for the MFN2 protein, a GTPase involved in the mitochondrial dynamics and bioenergetics. We identified a novel mutation, that was inherited from her mother, in the MFN2 protein (Met234Ile)...

Objective Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease 4B1 and 4B2 (CMT4B1/B2) are characterized by recessive inheritance, early onset, severe course, slowed nerve conduction, and myelin outfoldings. CMT4B3 shows a more heterogeneous phenotype. All are associated with myotubularin-related protein (MTMR) mutations. We conducted a multicenter, retrospective...
