We report on a C-to-T transition in exon 6 of the PLP gene in a male with Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease/X-linked spastic paraplegia. The transition changes a glutamine at amino acid residue 233 to a termination codon. This premature stop codon probably results in a truncated protein that is not funct

A transition C506T was found in exon 4 of the proteolipid protein gene of a boy with spastic paraplegia. This mutation resulted in the substitution of phenylalanine for serine 169, which is in the third transmembrane domain of the proteolipid protein molecule. The mutation apparently arose de novo,

We report a G→A transition at nucleotide 431 of the proteolipid protein gene (PLP) results in a nonsense codon in a family with an unusual form of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease (PMD). The mutation, which creates a second AluI restriction site, results in a nonsense mutation in PLP. The clinical pictu
