PMID: 12134079
Gene: CLN5
HGNC: 2076
Disease: Ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal, 5 (also known as Finnish variant late infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis, neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis late infantile Finnish variant, or Finnish vLINCL)
MONDO: 0009745
InheritancePattern: Autosomal Recessive
Prevalence: Unknown, but part of a larger group of NCL disorders with a collective prevalence between 1 in 12,500 (PMID:9662406) and 1 in 100,000 (PMID:23374165)
Penetrance: Fully penetrant, with onset often in the late infantile period but in some cases during early adulthood or even as late as in the 6th decade of life
