Huntington disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by expansion of a variable length (CAG), repeat in the 5' coding region of a novel gene on chromosome 4~16.3. We provide comprehensive molecular analysis of a sporadic case of HD in which a paternally derived normal l
