In a patient with early-onset Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease-2A2A (CMT2A2A; 609260), Zuchner et al. (2004) identified a heterozygous 280C-T transition in exon 4 of the MFN2 gene, resulting in an arg94-to-trp (R94W) substitution. A different mutation affecting the same codon (R94Q; 608507.0001) was identified in another family. PMID:15064763 |

Zuchner et al. (2006) identified a heterozygous R94W mutation in an African American mother and daughter with hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy with optic atrophy (HMSN6A; 601152). Both patients had early onset of axonal neuropathy, at ages 8 and 3 years, respectively, and late onset of optic atrophy, at ages 50 and 40 years, respectively. PMID:16437557 |

Chung et al. (2006) identified a heterozygous R94W mutation in 2 Korean families with severe early-onset CMT2A2A and no evidence of optic atrophy. PMID:16835246 |
