Abstract

Normal activity of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex was found in platelet‐enriched preparations from two siblings with Friedreich's ataxia who had been reported previously as being deficient in this enzyme.

## Abstract Friedreich's ataxia (FA) is the most common form of autosomal recessive spinocerebellar ataxia and is often associated with a cardiomyopathy. The disease is caused by an expanded intronic GAA repeat, which results in deficiency of a mitochondrial protein called __frataxin__. In the yeas
