CCG•CGG interruptions in high‐penetrance SCA8 families increase RAN translation and protein toxicity

Abstract Spinocerebellar ataxia type 8 (SCA8), a dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CTG•CAG expansion, is unusual because most individuals that carry the mutation do not develop ataxia. To understand the variable penetrance of SCA8, we studied the molecular differences betwe...
