Clinical aspects of CAG repeat diseases.

Brain pathology (Zurich, Switzerland) - 1 Jul 1997

Nance M A

Abstract excerpt

Seven neurodegenerative disorders are known to be caused by unstable expansions of the trinucleotide CAG within human genes, and more will be discovered in the coming years. These disorders share some clinical similarities, as well as some differences, which are summarized here. These diseases have unusual clinical genetic properties related to the dynamic nature of CAG repeat expansions, including instability of...
