Psychiatric symptoms and CAG expansion in Huntington's disease

16 Feb 1996

Abstract excerpt

The mutation responsible for Huntington's disease (HD) is an elongated CAG repeat in the coding region of the IT15 gene. A PCR-based test with high sensitivity and accuracy is now available to identify asymptomatic gene carriers and patients. An inverse correlation between CAG copy number and age at disease onset has been found in a large number of affected individuals. The influence of the CAG repeat expansion...
