Preferred Label : Charcot-marie-tooth disease, axonal, type 2b1;

Symbol : CMT2B1;

CISMeF acronym : CMT2B1;

Type : Phenotype, molecular basis known;

Alternative titles and symbols : Charcot-marie-tooth disease, axonal, autosomal recessive, type 2b1; Charcot-marie-tooth neuropathy, type 2b1; Charcot-marie-tooth disease, neuronal, type 2b1;

Description : Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease constitutes a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of hereditary motor and sensory neuropathies. On the basis of electrophysiologic criteria, CMT is divided into 2 major types: type 1, the demyelinating form, characterized by a motor median nerve conduction velocity less than 38 m/s (see CMT1B; 118200); and type 2, the axonal form, with a normal or slightly reduced nerve conduction velocity. For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of axonal CMT type 2, see CMT2A1 (118210).;

Inheritance : Autosomal recessive;

Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the lamin A/C gene (LMNA, 150330.0020);

Prefixed ID : #605588;
