    In one case, the homozygous pathogenic variant NM_000049.2:c.914C>A;p.Ala305Glu, which is previously reported in ClinVar, in the gene ASPA was identified causing Canavan disease. In the second case, the homozygous novel variant NM_000487.5:c.256C>G;p.Arg86Gly in the gene ARSA was identified causing metachromatic leukodystrophy.

    report of 2 Egyptian sibling patients suspected of Canavan disease (CD); study revealed homozygosity for substitution T530C (Ile177Thr) in exon 4 of the ASPA gene in both sibs; substitution T530C (Ile177Thr) results in a novel missense mutation causing a CD phenotype with severe clinical characteristics

    New T530C mutation in the aspartoacylase gene caused Canavan disease with no correlation between severity and N-acetylaspartate excretion.
