AChR deficiency due to epsilon-subunit mutations: two common mutations in the Netherlands.

AChR deficiency due to epsilon-subunit mutations: two common mutations in the Netherlands.

Congenital myasthenic syndromes are a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of hereditary disorders affecting neuromuscular transmission. We have identified mutations within the acetylcholine receptor (AChR) epsilon-subunit gene underlying congenital myasthenic syndromes in nine patients (s...
