Abstract
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the most common form of motor neuron disease, characterized by a great variety of both clinical presentations and genetic causes. Previous studies had identified two different missense mutations in SOD1 (p.R116C and p.R116G) causing familial ALS. In this study, we report a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the SOD1 gene (p.R116S) in a family with inherited ALS manifested as fast-deteriorating pure...
