Part Description
LP207802-2 Frataxin
The concentration of the mitochondrial protein frataxin can be used to both diagnose and monitor treatment for patients with Friedreich ataxia (FA). Decreased frataxin protein levels are diagnostic of FA and can be utilized for monitoring known patients. FA is an autosomal recessive disease affecting approximately 1:50,000 Caucasians. The disease is clinically characterized by progressive spasticity, ataxia, dysarthria, absent lower limb reflexes, sensory loss, and scoliosis. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is present in approximately two-thirds of patients with FA and the most frequent cause of premature death. FA is caused by mutations in the FXN gene encoding frataxin.
