Frequency of the loss of CAA interruption in the HTT CAG tract and implications for Huntington disease in the reduced penetrance range

PURPOSE: In some Huntington disease (HD) patients, the “loss of interruption” (LOI) variant eliminates an interrupting codon in the HTT CAG-repeat tract, which causes earlier age of onset (AOO). The magnitude of this effect is uncertain, since previous studies included few LOI carriers, and the vari...
