Autosomal recessive spinal muscular atrophy is caused by mutations in the survival motoneuron (SMN) gene. There are two nearly identical copies of this gene present on chromosome 5q13; however, only the telomeric copy of this gene is affected in spinal muscular atrophy In this study, we describe a new method to detect SMN gene deletion by denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography, which is also simple to perform but is faster and more specific.
