Repeat Disorders v0.162 SCA_THAP11_CAG Bryony Thompson STR: SCA_THAP11_CAG was added
STR: SCA_THAP11_CAG was added to Repeat Disorders. Sources: Other
Mode of inheritance for STR: SCA_THAP11_CAG was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for STR: SCA_THAP11_CAG were set to 15368101; 24677642; 34165550; 38113319
Phenotypes for STR: SCA_THAP11_CAG were set to autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia MONDO:0020380
Review for STR: SCA_THAP11_CAG was set to AMBER
Added comment: 7 individuals from 2 Chinese families with SCA (1 was pre-ataxic) and a THAP11 CAG (polyQ) expansion. 45 repeats was the lowest number of repeats in an affected individual. A 46/29 CAG THAP11 genotype has also been identified in an individual with ataxia of European ancestry, that also had a CACNA1A pathogenic expansion which causes SCA6. Analysis of the 1000 genomes cohort (n=2504), suggests a normal range between 19-39. Also, a supporting mouse model and functional assays support a toxic aggregation mechanism of disease.
Further probands/families are required to confirm the gene-disease association.

Added comment: NM_023035.2:c.6929_6931CAG[X]
PolyQ expansion alters gene binding, impairs transcription factor function, and is toxic to cells expressing the α1ACT – effects consistent with a loss of function
Normal: ≤18 repeats
Questionable significance: 19 CAG repeats
Full penetrance: ≥20 repeats
