AR neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 8 northern epilepsy variant - progressive epilepsy with mentsal retardation. Finnish founder mutation. Ranta et al, 1999 - In 22 Finnish patients with Northern epilepsy all hom for R24G. Carrier freq was 1/135. AR neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis 8 - seizures also part of this phentoype and many cases reported: Ranta et al, 2004 - 4 hom mutations in affected members of 9 families with the so called Turkish variant T107M. Cannelli et al 2006 - hom or compound het in 3 unrelated Italian parents. Many reported variants listed on HGMD Pro.Created: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m. | Last Modified: 6 Aug 2019, 8:31 p.m.
