Functional evidence for a de novo mutation in WDR45 leading to BPAN in a Chinese girl
Abstract Background Beta‐propeller protein‐associated neurodegeneration (BPAN, OMIM 300894) is an X‐linked neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations in WDR45. WDR45 is required for autophagy, defect in WDR45 impaired autophagy which contributes for the pathogenesis of BPAN. Previously, we repor...
