Mutations in PNKP cause recessive ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 4.
Hereditary autosomal-recessive cerebellar ataxias are a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders. We used homozygosity mapping and exome sequencing to study a cohort of nine Portuguese families who were identified during a nationwide, population-based, systematic survey as displaying a consistent phenotype of recessive ataxia with oculomotor apraxia (AOA). The integration of ...
متن کاملClinical and molecular findings of ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 in 4 families.
BACKGROUND Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) is an autosomal recessive disease caused by SETX mutations in 9q34 resulting in cerebellar ataxia in association with peripheral neuropathy, cerebellar atrophy on imaging, an elevated alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) serum level, and occasional oculomotor apraxia. OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical and molecular findings of 7 patients with a clin...
متن کاملCognitive Functions in Ataxia with Oculomotor Apraxia Type 2
BACKGROUND Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type 2 (AOA2) is characterized by cerebellar atrophy, peripheral neuropathy, oculomotor apraxia, and elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels. The disease is caused by a recessive mutation in the senataxin gene. Since it is a very rare cerebellar disorder, no detailed examination of cognitive functions in AOA2 has been published to date. The aim of...

متن کاملAtaxia with Oculomotor Apraxia Type 1 without Oculomotor Apraxia: A Case Report.
Dear Editor, Ataxia with oculomotor apraxia type I (AOA1) is a recessively inherited ataxic disorder that is characterized clinically by the childhood onset of progressive cerebellar ataxia, oculomotor apraxia (OMA), and peripheral axonal sensorimotor neuropathy.1 Dystonia, chorea, and cognitive impairment are commonly associated symptoms, and hypoalbuminemia and hypercholesterolemia are often ...
