Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) in grey zone carriers [PDF]
The grey zone (GZ; 45–54 CGG repeats in the FMR1 gene) is considered a normal allele; however, several studies have found a high frequency of GZ in movement disordered populations. Here, we describe neurological features of fragile X-associated tremor/

International audienceFragile X-associated tremor ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is caused by FMR1 premutation. The features include ataxia, action tremor and middle cerebellar peduncle (MCP) hyperintensity, the latter being the only major radiological ...

Aim A GGC repeat expansion in the 5′ untranslated region of NOTCH2NLC is a genetic cause of Neuronal Intranuclear Inclusion Disease (NIID) that exhibits cognitive, motor, and autonomic dysfunction. Our objective is to determine whether there are undiagnosed NIID cases in a psychiatry‐based dementia‐enriched cohort and to identify their clinical ...

Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting subjects (premutation carriers) with a 55-200 CGG-trinucleotide expansion in the 5'UTR of the fragile X mental retardation 1 gene (FMR1) typically after age 50.

Abstract Genetic factors play a central role in neurodegenerative disorders. Over the past few decades, significant progress has been made in identifying the causative genes of numerous monogenic disorders, largely due to the widespread adoption of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) technologies in both research and clinical settings.

Data_Sheet_1_Middle Cerebellar Peduncle Width—A Novel MRI Biomarker for FXTAS?.PDF
Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a severe neurodegenerative movement disorder affecting over 40% of male and 16% of female FMR1 premutation carriers over the age of 50.

Long‐Read Sequencing: The Third Generation of Diagnostic Testing for Dystonia
Abstract Long‐read sequencing methodologies provide powerful capacity to identify all types of genomic variations in a single test. Long‐read platforms such as Oxford Nanopore and PacBio have the potential to revolutionize molecular diagnostics by reaching unparalleled accuracies in genetic discovery and long‐range phasing.

ERP abnormalities elicited by word repetition in fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) and amnestic MCI [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), a neurodegenerative disorder caused by FMR1 gene premutations, typically associated with frontal-subcortical type cognitive impairments.

Targeted Long‐Read Sequencing as a Single Assay Improves the Diagnosis of Spastic‐Ataxia Disorders
ABSTRACT Objective The hereditary spastic‐ataxia spectrum disorders are a group of disabling neurological diseases. The traditional genetic testing pathway is complex, multistep and leaves many cases unsolved. We aim to streamline and improve this process using long‐read sequencing. Methods We developed a targeted long‐read sequencing strategy with the

Fragile-X–Associated Tremor/Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS) in Females with the FMR1 Premutation
We describe five female carriers of the FMR1 premutation who presented with symptoms of tremor and ataxia and who received a diagnosis of definite or probable fragile-X–associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). Unlike their male counterparts with FXTAS,
