Abstract

Dysequilibrium syndrome (DES) is a non-progressive congenital ataxia characterized by severe intellectual deficit, truncal ataxia and markedly delayed, quadrupedal or absent ambulation. Recessive loss-of-function mutations in the very low density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) gene represent the most common cause of DES. Only two families have been reported harbouring homozygous missense mutations, both with a similarly severe phenotype. We report an Italian girl with very mild DES caused by the novel homozygous VLDLR missense mutation p.(C419Y). This unusually benign phenotype possibly relates to a less disruptive effect of the mutation, falling within a domain (EGF-B) not predicted as crucial for the protein function.
