Mondo Description A congenital myasthenic syndrome characterized by autosomal recessive inheritance of postsynaptic neuromuscular junction defects, early-onset progressive muscle weakness, and kinetic abnormalities of the AChR channel that has material basis in homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the CHRNE gene on chromosome 17p13.
Uniprot Description A form of congenital myasthenic syndrome, a group of disorders characterized by failure of neuromuscular transmission, including pre-synaptic, synaptic, and post-synaptic disorders that are not of autoimmune origin. Clinical features are easy fatigability and muscle weakness affecting the axial and limb muscles (with hypotonia in early-onset forms), the ocular muscles (leading to ptosis and ophthalmoplegia), and the facial and bulbar musculature (affecting sucking and swallowing, and leading to dysphonia). The symptoms fluctuate and worsen with physical effort. CMS4B is a fast-channel myasthenic syndrome. It is caused by kinetic abnormalities of the AChR, resulting in brief opening and activity of the channel, with a rapid decay in endplate current, failure to achieve threshold depolarization of the endplate and consequent failure to fire an action potential.
