Epigenetic Heterogeneity in Friedreich Ataxia Underlies Variable FXN Reactivation
Friedreich ataxia (FRDA) is typically caused by homozygosity for an expanded GAA triplet-repeat in intron 1 of the FXN gene. The expanded repeat induces repressive histone changes and DNA hypermethylation, which result in epigenetic silencing and FXN transcriptional deficiency. A class I histone dea...
