Description

Jen et al. (1999) reported affected members of a family with episodic ataxia type 2 (108500) who carried a 4914C-T substitution in exon 29 of the CACNA1A gene. The substitution resulted in an arg1549-to-ter (R1549X) mutation (reported in the article as ARG1547TER) that predicts a truncated product containing the first 3 domains of the protein. The patients experienced attacks of vertigo, truncal and limb ataxia, nystagmus, and diffuse weakness during ataxic spells. See also 601011.0020.
