OMIM report

[BROWN-VIALETTO-VAN LAERE SYNDROME 2; BVVLS2](https://omim.org/entry/614707)

Human gene(s) implicated

[SOLUTE CARRIER FAMILY 52 (RIBOFLAVIN TRANSPORTER), MEMBER 2; SLC52A2](https://omim.org/entry/607882)

Symptoms and phenotype

Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome-2 is an autosomal recessive progressive neurologic disorder characterized by early childhood onset of sensorineural deafness, bulbar dysfunction, and severe diffuse muscle weakness and wasting of the upper and lower limbs and axial muscles, resulting in respiratory insufficiency. [from MIM:614707; 2018.05.02]

(OMIM, 2013-)
Genetics

Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome-2 (BVVLS2) is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the SLC52A2 gene. [from MIM:614707; 2018.05.02]

(OMIM, 2013-)
Cellular phenotype and pathology
Molecular information

SLC52A2 is a transmembrane protein that mediates cellular uptake of riboflavin. [from MIM:607882; 2018.05.02]
