Name
Congenital myasthenic syndrome
Description
Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMSs) are a heterogenous group of genetic disorders caused by mutations in several proteins that compose the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) apparatus on which synaptic formation and function depend. The majority are recessively inherited. The disorders of the NMJ cause weakness and fatigue.
