Despite next generation sequencing facilitating the identification of variants in myasthenic\u2010associated genes, these variants are frequently of unknown significance and the clinical diagnosis can be delayed. It is mutations in the genes encoding neuromuscular junction proteins AChR, RAPSN, and DOK7 that underlie most cases. Appreciation of key phenotypic features that distinguish between AChR deficiency due to mutations in\n                    <jats:italic>CHRNE<\/jats:italic>\n                    , AChR deficiency due to mutations in\n                    <jats:italic>RAPSN,<\/jats:italic>\n                    and the \u201climb girdle\u201d myasthenic syndrome due to mutations in\n                    <jats:italic>DOK7<\/jats:italic>\n                    can facilitate early diagnosis. While severity for each of these conditions is markedly variable and thus there are exceptions to the rule, the\n                    <jats:italic>CHRNE<\/jats:italic>\n                    mutations result in stable generalized fatigable weakness with marked ophthalmoparesis,\n                    <jats:italic>RAPSN<\/jats:italic>\n                    mutations often result in respiratory crises in neonates or early childhood that tend to resolve with age, and\n                    <jats:italic>DOK7<\/jats:italic>\n                    mutations cause a limb girdle myasthenic pattern of weakness that may present at birth or shortly after the walking motor milestone is achieved, is slowly progressive but responds well to treatment. The differences and time course for these phenotypes may be explained by the underlying molecular mechanisms. For the\n                    <jats:italic>CHRNE<\/jats:italic>\n                    mutations, patients at least partially function on the fetal form of the AChR; for\n                    <jats:italic>RAPSN<\/jats:italic>\n                    mutations, AChR clustering on the postsynaptic membrane is destabilized; and for\n                    <jats:italic>DOK7<\/jats:italic>\n                    mutations, the stability of endplate structures is affected.
