PMD (Pelizaeus–Merzbacher disease), a CNS (central nervous system) disease characterized by shortened lifespan and severe neural dysfunction, is caused by mutations of the PLP1 (X-linked myelin proteolipid protein) gene. The majority of human PLP1 mutations are caused by duplications; almost all oth...
