Abstract
Background
: Spinocerebellar ataxia 6 (SCA6) is an autosomal dominant spinocerebellar degeneration and caused by the expansion of the polymorphic CAG repeat in the human alpha 1A -voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit gene. In this study, we report the clinical and molecular genetic characteristics of SCA6 in 2 Korean families. We fur-ther describe that SCA6 and Episodic ataxia type 2 are simultaneously developed in same family showing no intergen-erational changes of CAG repeat numbers. Methods : Seventeen members of one family and nine of the other received detailed neurological examination and history taking at least one occasion. After the screening test, molecular diagnos-tic test by using Zhuchenko
