Genotype\u2013phenotype analysis of <jats:italic>DYNC1H1<\/jats:italic> variants and neuromuscular diseases revealed that mutations in the DYN1 region of DYNC1H1 protein were associated with a more severe phenotype, more complicated symptoms, and more CNS involvement than the DHC_N1 region.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Our study potentially expanded the knowledge of the phenotypic and genetic spectrum of neuromuscular diseases caused by <jats:italic>DYNC1H1<\/jats:italic> mutations.
