We studied the relationship between the genotype and clinical phenotype in 27 families with dominant X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMTX1) neuropathy. Twenty-two families showed mutations in the coding region of the connexin32 (cx32) gene. The mutations include four nonsense mutations, eight missense

Connexin32 (Cx32) is a gap junction protein and its mutations are responsible for X-linked Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease. We examined the functional abnormality of C6 glioma cells transfected with mutant (C53S and P172R) Cx32 genes. Nontransfected C6 did not express Cx32. Northern and Western blot ana
