Abstract

Background: Kufor-Rakeb Syndrome (KRS) is an autosomal recessive disease characterized by Parkinsonism, pyramidal signs, dementia, and supranuclear gaze palsy. KRS is caused by mutations in ATP13A2 producing a transmembrane protein responsible for the regulation of intracellular inorganic cations.
