Abstract excerpt
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 10 (SCA10) is a rare autosomal dominant ataxia caused by a large expansion of the (ATTCT)n repeat in ATXN10. SCA10 was described in Native American and Asian individuals which prompted a search for an expanded haplotype to confirm a common ancestral origin for the expansion event. All patients with SCA10 expansions in our cohort share a single haplotype defined at the 5'-end by the...
