Overlapping w/PI4KA-related disorderDistinguishing from PI4KA-related disorder
HYCC1 (FAM126A) Hypomyelination & congenital cataract ARHypomyelinating leukodystrophy. Cerebellar signs are variably present.Congenital cataracts variably present & psychomotor regression; peripheral neuropathy present in majority of affected persons. Polymicrogyria, IBD, & immunodeficiency have not been described.
PLP1 PLP1 disorders incl Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease & spastic paraplegia 2 (SPG2)XLHypomyelinating leukodystrophy. Prominent cerebellar features. Variable age of onset w/spastic paraparesis described as SPG2 in those w/later onset.Polymicrogyria, IBD, & immunodeficiency have not been described.
RARS1 RARS1-related hypomyelinating leukodystrophy (OMIM 616140)ARHypomyelinating leukodystrophy. Severe refractory epilepsy / epileptic encephalopathy has been described.Polymicrogyria, IBD & immunodeficiency have not been described.
