Familial spastic paraplegia (FSP), characterized by progressive spasticity of the lower extremities, is in its "pure" form generally of autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. Hazan et al. "at Genet 5:163-167, 19931 reported tight linkage of a large FSP family to the highly polymorphic microsatellit
Three dominantly inherited "pure" form of familial spastic paraplegia (FSP) genes have been genetically mapped to regions of chromosomes, yet no specific genes or mutations have been identified (FSPI ; chromosome 14q, FSP2; chromosome 2p and FSP3; chromosome 15q). We studied a "pure" form of autosom
Hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) describes a heterogeneous group of inherited neurodegenerative disorders in which the cardinal pathological feature is upper motor neurone degeneration leading to progressive spasticity and weakness of the lower limbs. Using samples from a large Omani family we re
## Abstract We describe a Japanese family in which inheritance of a novel mutation p.A100T in __SPG6__ resulted in an autosomal dominant form of hereditary spastic paraplegia (ADHSP). Clinical investigation showed a pure form of HSP. Our study demonstrates further allelic heterogeneity of __SPG6__.
