Abstract

Neurodegenerative Genetics The underlying genetics of neurodegenerative disorders tend not to be well understood. Novarino et al. (p. 506 ; see the Perspective by Singleton ) investigated the underlying genetics of hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), a human neurodegenerative disease, by sequencing the exomes of individuals with recessive neurological disorders. Loss-of-function gene mutations in both novel genes and genes previously implicated for this condition were identified, and several were functionally validated.
