pubmed:abstractText
Infantile onset spinocerebellar ataxia (IOSCA) is a progressive neurological disorder of unknown etiology. It is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait and has so far been reported in just 19 Finnish patients in 13 separate families. We have previously assigned the IOSCA locus (HGMW-approved symbol SCA8) to chromosome 10q, where no previously identified ataxia loci are located. Haplotype analysis combined with genealogical data provided evidence that all the IOSCA cases in Finland originate from a single 30- to 40-generation-old founder mutation. By analyzing extended disease haplotypes observed today, the IOSCA locus can now be restricted to a region between two adjacent microsatellites, D10S192 and D10S1265, with no genetic intermarker distance. We have constructed a detailed physical map of this 270-kb IOSCA region and cytogenetically localized it to 10q24. We have also assigned two previously known genes, PAX2 and CYP17, more precisely into this region, but the sequence analysis of coding regions of these two genes has not revealed mutations in an IOSCA patient. The obtained long-range clones will form the basis for the isolation of a novel ataxia gene.
