The recent demonstration that spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) is caused by a CAG repeat expansion within the ataxin-2 gene has allowed us to determine the frequency of SCA2 compared with SCA1, SCA3/Machado-Joseph disease (MJD), and dentatorubropallidoluysian atrophy (DRPLA) in patients with sporadic and inherited ataxia.

The spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2) is caused by a trinucleotide (CAG) expansion in the coding region of the ataxin 2 gene on chromosome 12q.89 families with autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia (ADCA) types I, II and III, and 47 isolated cases with idiopathic late onset cerebellar ataxia (ILOCA), were analysed for this mutation.
