Intermediate-length CAG repeat in ATXN2 is associated with increased risk for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis in Brazilian patients

Intermediate-length cytosine-adenine-guanine nucleotide repeat expansions in the ATXN2 gene (which encodes for the protein Ataxin-2) have been linked to increased risk for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) in different populations. There is no such study in the Brazilian population, which has a mi...
