What is the diagnosis? A 2-year-old child refuses to walk

A new DPB1 allele has been identified in a Caucasoid individual, DPB1*7601. The sequence of the complete second exon has been confirmed by cloning and subsequent sequencing. This allele differs by one amino acid, at codon 36, from DPB1*1401, as indicated by SBT and PCR-SSP analysis. The amino-acid motif introduced by the change is shared by DPB1*0401 and some rare alleles. It remains unclear whether the change is due to interallelic microgen conversion or a single point mutation.
