Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2T

Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease axonal type 2T is a form of inherited peripheral nerve disorder. It is linked to genetic changes in the MME gene on chromosome 3q25. These mutations, which can be either homozygous or compound heterozygous, affect nerve function and may influence muscle strength and control. This condition falls under the broader group of Charcot-Marie-Tooth diseases, which are known for altering the structure and function of peripheral nerves. The understanding of this type relies on genetic findings detailed in sources such as OMIM and Orphanet.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

This condition is caused by mutations in the MME gene located on chromosome 3q25. People with this condition have changes in both copies of the MME gene, which can occur in a homozygous or compound heterozygous pattern. These genetic mutations are inherited and form the material basis for the disease.
