Abstract excerpt
The molecular diagnosis of adult-onset autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxias remains challenging because of genetic heterogeneity. However, recently developed molecular genetic techniques will potentially revolutionize the diagnostic approach. Here we set out to define the genetic basis of the ataxia in two brothers with no molecular diagnosis. Clinical evaluation was followed by whole-exome second-generation...
