Biallelic SORD pathogenic variants cause Chinese patients with distal hereditary motor neuropathy
Abstract Sorbitol dehydrogenase gene (SORD) has been identified as a novel causative gene of recessive forms of hereditary neuropathy, including Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease type 2 and distal hereditary motor neuropathy (dHMN). Our findings reveal two novel variants (c.404 A > G and c.908 + 1 G &g...
