KEGG   DISEASE: Fragile X tremor/ataxia syndrome
Entry
H01731                      Disease                                
Name
Fragile X tremor/ataxia syndrome
Description
Fragile X tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting carriers of premutation CGG repeat expansions (range: 55-200) in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene. Common manifestations of FXTAS are progressive intention tremor, cerebellar gait ataxia, parkinsonism, working memory impairment, and frontal executive dysfunction. FXTAS occurs predominantly in men over age 50 years.
