Popis: In this report, we present a European family with six individuals affected with Moyamoya disease (MMD). We detected two novel missense variants in the Moyamoya susceptibility gene RNF213, c.12553A>G (p.(Lys4185Glu)) and c.12562G>A (p.(Ala4188Thr)). Cosegregation of the variants with MMD, as well as a previous report of a variant affecting the same amino acid residue in unrelated MMD patients, supports the role of RNF213 in the pathogenesis of MMD.
