Abstract
Background VPS13A disease (chorea-acanthocytosis) is an ultra-rare disorder caused by loss of function mutations in VPS13A characterized by striatal degeneration and by red blood cell (RBC) acanthocytosis. VPS13A is a bridge-like protein mediating bulk lipid transfer at membrane contact sites.
