81884-9
LaboratoryNIPA1 and REEP1 gene full mutation analysis in Blood or Tissue by Sequencing
Definition
Mutation analysis of the REEP1 (SPG31) and NIPA1 genes is performed in patients with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern of a hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), especially if no mutation is found in the SPAST (SPG4) or ALT1 (SPG3A) genes. The submitter's lab performs mutation analysis of exons 1-7 and flanking intronic regions of the REEP1 gene and exons 2-5 and flanking intronic regions of the NIPA1 gene by sequencing methods.
