Abstract excerpt
We have identified a hypervariable microsatellite sequence within the chromosome 9 marker MCT112 (D9S15), which we have previously shown to be tightly linked to Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA). The system detects 7 alleles ranging in size from 195 to 209 base pairs, and substantially increases informativity at the MCT112 locus. This enhances its use for genetic counselling in affected families. Recalculated combined...
