SPG16

Chr XXLR

spastic paraplegia 16 (complicated, X-linked recessive)

Also known as: SPG

The SPG16 gene encodes a protein involved in mitochondrial function and cellular energy metabolism. Mutations cause X-linked complicated spastic paraplegia 16, which presents with progressive spasticity of the lower limbs along with additional neurological features such as intellectual disability, seizures, and other complications. This condition follows X-linked recessive inheritance, primarily affecting males.
