A novel gene containing a trinucleotide repeat that is expanded and unstable on Huntington's disease chromosomes
Open accessAbstract
The Huntington's disease (HD) gene has been mapped in 4p16.3 but has eluded identification. We have used haplotype analysis of linkage disequilibrium to spotlight a small segment of 4p16.3 as the likely location of the defect. A new gene, IT15, isolated using cloned trapped exons from the target area contains a polymorphic trinucleotide repeat that is expanded and unstable on HD chromosomes. A (CAG)n repeat longer than the normal range was observed on HD chromosomes from all 75 disease families examined, comprising a variety of ethnic backgrounds and 4p16.3 haplotypes. The (CAG)n repeat appears to be located within the coding sequence of a predicted approximately 348 kd protein that is widely expressed but unrelated to any known gene. Thus, the HD mutation involves an unstable DNA segment, similar to those described in fragile X syndrome, spino-bulbar muscular atrophy, and myotonic dystrophy, acting in the context of a novel 4p16.3 gene to produce a dominant phenotype.

“Huntington’s Disease arises from an expansion of cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide repeats in the HTT gene (formerly IT15) of chromosome 4p16.3, leading to the production of a dysfunctional huntingtin protein (polyQ-HTT) [161,162].”

“The cause of Huntington's disease, an autosomal dominant neurological disorder, is well established as an abnormal expansion of CAG triplet repeats in exon 1 of the ubiquitously expressed huntingtin ( HTT ) gene, resulting in an elongated polyglutamine (Q) tract in the mutant huntingtin protein (mHTT) (MacDonald et al. , 1993).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
