Complete loss of CASK causes severe ataxia through cerebellar degeneration in human and mouse
Paras A Patel, Julia V Hegert, Ingrid Cristian…·Konark Mukherjee
This study shows that complete loss of CASK causes cerebellar degeneration in humans and mice, leading to severe ataxia and encephalopathy, while heterozygous loss results in less severe, non-progressive pathology due to X-chromosome inactivation.
