We describe two brothers, 11 and 13 years old, respectively, with an early-onset hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy, deafness, and mental retardation. Electrophysiological studies showed marked reduction of motor and sensory conduction velocity and absence of sensory action potentials. Sural ne
Hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy type I (HMSNI), also known as Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMTl), has been shown to be genetically heterogeneous. A major gene maps to chromosome 17 (CMTlA). A set of loci, D17S122, D17S125, and D17S124, show tight linkage to the C M T l A locus, and a
