Hereditary neuralgic amyotrophy (HNA) is an autosomal-dominant inherited recurrent focal neuropathy affecting mainly the brachial plexus. In this study we report the genomic structure and mutation analysis of three candidate genes: sphingosine kinase 1 (SPHK1); tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2); and cytoglobin (CYGB). We did not find any disease-associated mutations, indicating that HNA is not caused by point mutations in these genes. However, we identified several sequencing errors in the cDNA of SPHK1 as well as seven novel single-nucleotide polymorphisms.
