Popis: The late-onset cerebellar ataxias (LOCAs) have largely resisted molecular diagnosis.We sequenced the genomes of six persons with autosomal dominant LOCA who were members of three French Canadian families and identified a candidate pathogenic repeat expansion. We then tested for association between the repeat expansion and disease in two independent case-control series - one French Canadian (66 patients and 209 controls) and the other German (228 patients and 199 controls). We also genotyped the repeat in 20 Australian and 31 Indian index patients. We assayed gene and protein expression in two postmortem cerebellum specimens and two induced pluripotent stem-cell (iPSC)-derived motor-neuron cell lines.In the six French Canadian patients, we identified a GAA repeat expansion deep in the first intron ofA dominantly inherited deep intronic GAA repeat expansion in
