Description : Spinocerebellar ataxia-29 is an autosomal dominant neurologic disorder characterized
by onset in infancy of delayed motor development and mild cognitive delay. Affected
individuals develop a very slowly progressive or nonprogressive gait and limb ataxia
associated with cerebellar atrophy on brain imaging. Additional variable features
include nystagmus, dysarthria, and tremor (summary by Huang et al., 2012). Heterozygous
mutation in the ITPR1 gene also causes SCA15 (606658), which is distinguished by later
age at onset and normal cognition. For a general discussion of autosomal dominant
spinocerebellar ataxia, see SCA1 (164400).;
Inheritance : Autosomal dominant;
Molecular basis : Caused by mutation in the inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor 1 gene (ITPR1, 147265.0003);
