Abstract:Immunoglobulin Mu‐binding protein 2 (IGHMBP2) pathogenic variants result in the fatal, neurodegenerative disease spinal muscular atrophy with respiratory distress type 1 (SMARD1) and the milder, Charcot–Marie‐Tooth (CMT) type 2S (CMT2S) neuropathy. More than 20 years after the link between IGHMBP2 and SMARD1 was revealed, and 10 years after the discovery of the association between IGHMBP2 and CMT2S, the pathogenic mechanism of these diseases is still not well defined. The discovery that IGHMBP2 functions as an… Show more
