Autosomal recessive spastic paraplegia type 62 is a pure or complex form of hereditary spastic paraplegia characterized by an onset in the first decade of life of spastic paraperesis (more prominent in lower than upper extremities) and unsteady gait, as well as increased deep tendon reflexes, amyotrophy, cerebellar ataxia, and flexion contractures of the knees, in some.
Features include always present findings: Spasticity; and very common findings: Babinski sign, Lower limb hyperreflexia, and Lower limb spasticity. 20 total HPO annotations.
Organ System | Phenotype Count | Example Features |
|---|---|---|
Brain and nerves | 12 | Difficulty walking (gait disturbance), Babinski sign, Lower limb hyperreflexia |
ERLIN1 encodes ER lipid raft associated 1 (348 aa). Component of the ERLIN1/ERLIN2 complex which mediates the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs). Highest expression in Cells Cultured fibroblasts (58.3 TPM) and Vagina (30.3 TPM).
Hereditary spastic paraplegia 62 is caused by mutations in the ERLIN1 gene on chromosome 10.
ERLIN1 is classified as a druggable target (Druggable Genome and Transporter categories) with score 0.0.
Genetic testing for ERLIN1 is available. Testing is considered confirmatory for diagnosis.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for hereditary spastic paraplegia 62 has been reported in the published literature.
Phenotype severity distribution: 1 always present feature, 3 very common features, 4 common features.
Estimated prevalence: <1 in 1,000,000 (VERY_RARE).
No clinical trials have been registered for hereditary spastic paraplegia 62.
15 publications have been identified in PubMed for hereditary spastic paraplegia 62. Research spans Case Report / Case Series (27%), Clinical Trial Publication (20%), and Epidemiology / Natural History (20%).
