A probable cis-acting genetic modifier of Huntington disease frequent in individuals with African ancestry
Huntington disease (HD)is a dominantly inherited neurodegenerative disorder caused by the expansion of a polyglutamine encoding CAG repeat in the huntingtin gene. Recently, it has been established that disease severity in HD is best predicted by the number of pure CAG repeats rather than total gluta...
