Screening for ITPR1 deletions should be considered in patients with slowly progressive SCA, vermal cerebellar atrophy and prominent tremor after excluding common SCA repeat expansions.
Our results strongly confirm that ITPR1 is the causative gene for SCA15 and suggest that we need to investigate the point mutation in ITPR1 in the patients with autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia and tremor.
