Fukuyama CMD, muscle-eye-brain disease and Walker-Warburg syndrome, each associated with eye abnormalities and neuronal migration defects, result from mutations in fukutin, POMGnT1 and POMT1, respectively, while mutations in the fukutin-related protein (FKRP) gene cause congenital muscular dystrophy 1C, typically lacking brain involvement.
Mutations in the fukutin-related protein gene (FKRP) identify limb girdle muscular dystrophy 2I as a milder allelic variant of congenital muscular dystrophy MDC1C.
Mutations in the fukutin-related protein gene (FKRP) cause a form of congenital muscular dystrophy with secondary laminin alpha2 deficiency and abnormal glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan.
