Genetic analysis of polymorphisms in the kalirin gene for association with age-at-onset in European Huntington disease patients

BACKGROUND: Huntington disease (HD) is caused by an expanded CAG repeat in the HD gene. Although the length of the CAG repeat strongly correlates with the age-at-onset (AAO), AAO in HD individuals may differ dramatically in spite of similar expanded CAG repeat lengths. Additional genetic or environm...
