Expanded glutamine repeats of the ataxin-2 (ATXN2) protein cause spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2), a rare neurodegenerative disorder. More recent studies have suggested that expanded ATXN2 are genetic risk factor for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) via an RNA-dependent interaction with TDP-43. Given phenotypic diversity observed in SCA2 patients, we set out to determine polymorphic nature repeat length across spectrum disorders. In this study, genotyped 3919 disease patients and 4877...
