[Distal hereditary motor neuropathy].

Abstract

dHMN remain heterogeneous at the clinical and molecular genetic level.

The molecular pathomechanisms explaining why mutations in these ubiquitously expressed housekeeping genes result in the selective involvement of spinal motor neurons remain to be unravelled.
