Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay – Genetics
The inheritance pattern is autosomal recessive. The disorder is caused by a mutation in the SGCG on chromosome 13. The mutation of the SACS gene causes the production of an unstable, poorly functioning SACSIN protein. It is unclear as to how this mutation affects the central nervous system (CNS) and skeletal muscles presenting in the signs and symptoms of ARSACS.
Autosomal recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay – Abstract
Autosomal Recessive Spastic Ataxia of the Charlevoix-Saguenay (ARSACS) is a very rare neurodegenerative genetic disorder that primarily affects people from the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean and Charlevoix regions of Quebec or descendants of native settlers in this region. This disorder has also been demonstrated in people from various other countries including India, Turkey, Japan, The Netherlands, Italy, Belgium, France and Spain. The prevalence has been estimated at about 1 in 1900 in Quebec, but it is very rare elsewhere.
