Entry
H00874                      Disease                                
Name
Leukoencephalopathy with dystonia and motor neuropathy;
Sterol carrier protein 2 deficiency
  Supergrp
Peroxisomal beta-oxidation enzyme deficiency [DS:H00407]
Description
Leukoencephalopathy with dystonia and motor neuropathy is a disorder caused by a deficiency of sterol carrier protein-2 (SCPx), a peroxisomal enzyme with thiolase activity, which is required for the breakdown of branched-chain fatty acids. The patient presents with torticollis and dystonic head tremor as well as slight cerebellar signs with intention tremor, nystagmus, hyposmia, and azoospermia.
