Related Stories Next Story Source: University Of Michigan Health System Date: ANN ARBOR, MI - Scientists report today that they have found a gene for a rare leg-weakening nerve disease that slowly robs children of their ability to walk - a finding that opens the door to better diagnosis and treatment of the disorder, and to insights into other spinal cord problems. Led by researchers from the University of Michigan Health System who have focused for years on both the childhood and adult forms of the mysterious group of disorders known as hereditary spastic paraplegia, the team publishes its results in the November issue of Nature Genetics. "This is a major step forward in our understanding of HSP's causes, and has already allowed us to provide diagnostic testing to a few patients," says U-M neurologist and senior author John K. Fink, M.D. "We've been looking for HSP genes since 1993, and we're happy to have found, at last, the first one for a childhood form of the disease. Now, the search continues for the rest."

For Patients and Families Familial Spastic Paraplegia/ Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia CHG Research Update on HSP The Center for Human Genetics continues its effort to link families to known markers and to search for evidence of new loci. The long term goal of our study is better diagnosis and treatment for HSP. Kinesin Gene Mutation Found in HSP In the upcoming November 2002 American Journal of Human Genetics, CHG collaborators Reid et al. report that a mutation in a kinesin heavy chain gene, KIF5A, has been identified in a family with chromosome 12q–linked HSP (SPG10). KIF5A forms part of a protein motor complex that transports cargoes along microtubules. This finding supports an HSP-causative role for defective microtubule-mediated trafficking leading to nerve degeneration in the peripheral as well as the central nervous system. Including the kinesin gene mutation, eight HSP genes have currently been identified: SPG1/L1CAM gene codes for the protein L1 cell adhesion molecule SPG2/PLP gene codes for the protein myelin proteolipid protein SPG3A gene codes for the protein atlastin SPG4/SPAST gene codes for the protein spastin SPG7 gene codes for the protein paraplegin SPG10/KIF5A gene codes for the protein kinesin heavy chain 5A SPG13/HSP60 gene codes for the protein HSP60 SPG20 gene codes for the protein spartin

hereditary spastic paraparesis This is a hereditary neurodegenerative disorder which in its simple form results in a progressive spastic paraplegia. Patients present at any time from childhood to old age. There are two main forms of the disease: early onset with a very indolent course later onset, 40-60 yrs, with occasional complicating features such as cerebellar ataxia, dementia and epilepsy There is an important differential diagnosis.

Genetic Linkage analysis, positional cloning, inherited neurologic and psychiatric disorders. We found chromosomal loci for familial spastic paraplegia (FSP), a dominantly inherited, degenerative spinal cord disease; and for paroxysmal dystonic-choreoathetosis (PDC), a dominantly inherited movement disorder; and are pursuing the positional cloning of the FSP and PDC genes. We are exploring genetically dystonic Syrian hamsters as a potential homologue of human PDC. We are also using genetic linkage analysis to identify chromosomal loci of genes responsible for dominantly inherited, early-onset dementia and other neurologic disorders. 2. Developmental regulation of neuronal cytoskeleton. We cloned and sequenced the human microtubule associated protein 1a (MAP1a) gene. MAPs regulate microtubule stability and are therefore important factors governing the balance between neuronal rigidity and plasticity. MAP1a causes microtubules to be more stable and thus stabilize axonal shape. MAPs are under strict developmental regulation. Using transgenic mice, we are identifying the genetic regulatory elements of MAP1a in order to analyze the molecular genetic cascade that regulates microtubule stability.
