[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infantile_neuronal_ceroid_lipofuscinosis Infantile | [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infantile_neuronal_ceroid_lipofuscinosis Infantile Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (INCL)] is a recessively inherited disease that is associated with a decrease in PPT-1 activity due to mutations in PPT-1. Onset of symptoms which include retinal blindness, ataxia, seizures, and cortical atrophy of the brain, begin 1-2 years after birth. Death typically occurs between the ages of 8-11. Several mutations in the ''1p32'' chromosome have been identified to cause INCL <ref name="mutations" />. | ||
