ProjectSNPs in SCA3 – Identification of disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms in ataxin-3
Basic data
Acronym:
SNPs in SCA3
Title:
Identification of disease-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms in ataxin-3
Duration:
02/05/2024 to 01/08/2024
Abstract / short description:
This project aims to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) trinucleotide repeat expansion that causes spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) in order to develop an allele-specific therapeutic approach using antisense olionucleotides (ASOs).
