Description : Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a hereditary neuromuscular disorder characterized
by degeneration of spinal cord motor neurons resulting in muscle weakness. SMALED
shows autosomal dominant inheritance with muscle weakness predominantly affecting
the proximal lower extremities (Harms et al., 2010). The most common form of SMA (see,
e.g., SMA1, 253300) shows autosomal recessive inheritance and is due to mutation in
the SMN1 gene (600354) on chromosome 5q. - Genetic Heterogeneity of Lower Extremity-Predominant
Spinal Muscular Atrophy See also SMALED2 (615290), caused by mutation in the BICD2
gene (609797) on chromosome 9q22.;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the dynein, cytoplasmic 1, heavy chain 1 gene (DYNC1H1, 600112.0001).;
