Preferred Label : Spastic paraplegia 2, X-linked;

Symbol : SPG2;

CISMeF acronym : SPG2; SPPX2;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : SPPX2;

Description : The hereditary spastic paraplegias (SPG) are a group of clinically and genetically diverse disorders characterized by progressive, usually severe, lower extremity spasticity; see reviews of Fink et al. (1996) and Fink (1997). Some forms of SPG are considered 'uncomplicated,' i.e., progressive spasticity occurs in isolation; others are considered 'complicated,' i.e., progressive spasticity occurs with other neurologic features. X-linked, autosomal dominant (see 182600), and autosomal recessive (see 270800) forms of SPG have been described. For discussion of genetic heterogeneity of X-linked SPG, see 303350.;

Inheritance : X-linked recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the proteolipid protein 1 gene (PLP1, 300401.0012);

Prefixed ID : #312920;
