Somatic instability of the expanded GAA triplet-repeat sequence in Friedreich ataxia progresses throughout life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) patients are homozygous for expanded GAA triplet-repeat alleles in the FXN gene. Primary neurodegeneration involving the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) results in progressive ataxia.
