Mutations in the copper zinc superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) gene are the second most frequent cause of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Nearly 200 mutations of this gene have been described so far. We report allSOD1pathogenic variants identified in patients followed in the single ALS center of Lyon, France, between 2010 and 2020. Twelve patients from 11 unrelated families are described, including two families with the not yet describedH81YandD126Nmutations. Splice site mutations were detected in two families. We discuss implications concerning genetic screening ofSOD1gene in familial and sporadic ALS.
