Haplotype analysis at HTT locus in Huntington’s disease patients from India
2023-10-10
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by an increase in the number of CAG triplet repeats in exon 1 of the Huntingtin (<italic>HTT</italic>) gene. Expansions that contain more than 39 repeats predispose to disease. Some specific genetic elements (SNPs), and the haplotypes they create (haplogroups A, B, and C), located at the <italic>HTT</italic> locus seem to impact CAG repeat instability...
