C5575375
•
Disease or Syndrome
Synonyms: Spinocerebellar ataxia, autosomal recessive; Spinocerebellar Ataxia, Recessive

Intellectual Product
Source: Orphanet
A mode of inheritance that is observed for traits related to a gene encoded on one of the autosomes (i.e., the human chromosomes 1-22) in which a trait manifests in individuals with two pathogenic alleles, either homozygotes (two copies of the same mutant allele) or compound heterozygotes (whereby each copy of a gene has a distinct mutant allele).

Definition

A heterogeneous group of rare neurological disorders involving both the central and peripheral nervous system (and in some cases other systems and organs), and characterized by degeneration or abnormal development of the cerebellum and spinal cord and, in most cases, early onset occurring before the age of 20 years. [from ORDO]
