Spinocerebellar ataxia type 11: a case report / 中华神经科杂志

Spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA) is a group of highly heterogeneous autosomal dominant genetic disease, including many subtypes. SCA11 is a rare subtype of SCA, and is caused by mutant TTBK2 gene. A case of SCA11 was reported in this article. Whole exome sequencing showed that there was a c.1284dupA frameshift mutation in TTBK2 gene. Literature review found that only 6 pedigrees of SCA11 have been reported, but the mutation site of this case is a novel identified mutation that has not been reported in the Human Gene Mutation Database.
