Mapping of the second Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA2) locus to chromosome 9p23-p11: evidence for further locus heterogeneity.

Friedreich's ataxia (FRDA), the most-common form of autosomal recessive ataxia, is inherited in most cases by a large expansion of a GAA triplet repeat in the first intron of the frataxin ( X25) gene. Genetic heterogeneity in FRDA has been previously reported in typical FRDA families that do not link to the FRDA locus on chromosome 9q13. We report localization of a second FRDA locus (FRDA2) to chromosome 9p23-9p11, and we provide evidence for further genetic heterogeneity of the disease, in a family with the classic FRDA phenotype.[1]
