Part Description

LP19791-0   FXN gene.GAA repeats
The GAA trinucleotide repeat expansion in the FXN gene causes Friedreich ataxia, a neuromuscular condition with symptoms of ataxia, impaired speech, spasticity, and gradual loss of strength and sensation in the arms and legs. Most individuals with Friedreich ataxia have the expanded GAA trinucleotide repeat in both copies of the FXN gene. The GAA segment is repeated 66 to more than 1,000 times. About 2 percent of people with this condition have an expanded GAA trinucleotide repeat in one copy of the FXN gene and another kind of mutation in the other copy of the gene. Mutations in the FXN gene disrupt production of frataxin, greatly reducing the amount of this protein in cells. Source: Genetic Home Reference, National Library of Medicine, FXN gene

Change Reason
Changed 'FRDA' in the Component to 'FXN', the current HGNC approved gene symbol. June 2015: Changed Property from 'Pr' (Presence) to 'Threshold' since the results (e.g. positive, intermediate, negative) is based on a cut-off for the number of nucleotide repeats. Moved term from Class MOLPATH.TRINUC to MOLPATH.NUCREPEAT, a Class used to group together observations for nucleotide repeats.; The PrThr property is used for LOINC terms whose results are reported using an ordered categorical scale, regardless of whether or not an internal threshold was used to make that determination. This change was approved by the Laboratory LOINC Committee in June 2016.
