  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

We recently identified a novel gene, MJD1, for Machado-Joseph disease (MJD) and showed that MJD belongs to a novel class of inherited neurodegenerative diseases, where expansion of CAG repeats has been identified in the putatively responsible genes. This class of disease includes spinobulbar muscular atrophy (SBMA or Kennedy disease), Huntington's disease (HD), spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA), and dentatorubral pallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA). Interestingly, the longer expansions result in earlier onset and more severe clinical manifestations of the diseases.
