Additional Information:

Description: (OMIM) The neuronal ceroid lipofuscinoses (NCL; CLN) are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the intracellular accumulation of autofluorescent lipopigment storage material in different patterns ultrastructurally. The lipopigment patterns observed most often in CLN6 ...
Clinical Description OMIM Sharp et al. (1997) studied 2 consanguineous families with a variant form of late-onset infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (vLINCL). Both families originated from the Indian subcontinent. The affected individuals demonstrated a similar clinical course to the classic late ...
Molecular genetics OMIM In 2 families with a variant form of LINCL, one from Costa Rica and the other from Venezuela, Gao et al. (2002) identified mutations in the CLN6 gene (606725.0001-606725.0002). Wheeler et al. (2002) independently and simultaneously identified 6 ...
