Ataxia with vitamin E deficiency (AVED) is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease, due to mutations in TTPA gene (Arita et al. in Biochem J 306(Pt.2):437-443, 1995; Hentati et al. in Ann Neurol 39:295-300, 1996), which encodes for alpha-TTP, a cytosolic liver protein that is presumed to function in the intracellular transport of alpha-tocopherol.

Ataxia with vitamin E deficiency is an autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia caused by mutations in the α-tocopherol transfer protein coding gene localized on chromosome 8q, leading to lower levels of serum vitamin E. More than 91 patients diagnosed with ataxia with vitamin E deficiency have been reported worldwide.
