| Description | We report a family with X-linked dominant Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMTX1). Three affected family members are described, who underwent detailed clinical, electrophysiological, molecular genetic, and histopathological studies. A novel isoleucine at position 127 with serine (Ile127Ser) mutation in the gap junction protein beta 1 (GJB1) gene was detected. |
